I know where you're coming from, Gwyndara. I only have probably one Christian friend, and he's a very eclectic and open minded Christian. My mom would have a total cow if she knew, even though I am 22 and an adult. Those people who share my interests tend not to follow the Church. They have no problem with me, nor I with them, however my mom is a different matter.
Have your family members talked to any of your non LDS friends? Maybe if they get to know any of them it will help.
I hope things work out. We'd REALLY miss you if you were gone.

I talked to my husband and he and I decided that the two of us are the only family we really need. It's hard though. I explained to my mother about my friends, and I pointed out a few of them to her, and she was like. "Wow, I didn't know so and so was pagan, and really so and so is catholic." I smiled and said yes.
then she thought for a moment and appologized. She told me she would support me in all my friendships so long as they didn't "lead me astray".
My mother-in-law on the other hand is a compltely different story.
But I'm happy that I have my mother and my Husband support in my choice of friends.
