Among Mormons, 25 is practically an old maid. I intend to spend some quality time in the temple, with my bishop, and with close family and friends as I think and pray my way through this decision, but I would also value your insights into this. All parent-child relationships do. Somewhere down the road, you will find another girl who will be a much better match for you. As Joanna said, marriage takes some work no matter what, but being married to your best friend, and listening to the spirit brings great blessings. This guy is always busy. As Joanne mentioned, should you marry interfaith, you will have lots of help from fellow ward members on converting your spouse. I feel pretty awful about that whole thing.




I can only say that I was that girl, 10 years ago. If so, you have a chance. I did in college, and knew I would play 2nd fiddle to the lifelong dream. My daughter thinks it's funny that she's known her SO 4 years - not ready for marriage. It does not come from common religion or personality or even values; it only comes through mutual self transcendence.
I was shocked how much the stress, lack of sleep, etc. Thank you for pointing this out. If she says yes. The hospital had become, by his own admission, his "family", and he had virtually abandoned us to this demanding career. Is it crazy for me to reconsider this relationship. I wouldnt encourage my kids to date a mormon.
Many Mormon girls place the cart before the horse. Leave her so you can both find people that youre more suited for. Very true, and we're just getting started Hubby just began his intern year. Living in an interfaith, marriage can be hell. You will desire to have that eternal marriage, to have that support in taking kids to church, to be able to talk docterine with a like-minded individual. Ask her if her parents buy their underwear from a bookstore. And that my friend, is just a hint of the extent of the brain wash that Mormons experience.
