If the hashkafa you learned was that we need to isolate ourselves from the goyim and you still understand this to be true, then maybe it is time to move to a frum community.

If your hashkafa is that we need to integrate with society and you are facing conflicting emotions based on ideas that you heard from people who maintain the other hashkafa then you need to iron out your feelings and align them with your hashkafa.
