My Buddhist husband likes Mormons and even going to church. Obviously don't make any commitments further in the relationship because you do not want to be married into an insane orthodox LDS family because it will cause alot of troubles. Sunday is considered sacred by Mormons, and they do not undertake any entertaining or outdoor activities that result in spending, on that day. Your girlfriend might, or maybe IS, going through this. Having said that I'm not looking to get married any time soon, so no. It just plain sucks. In fact, when I first met him, I had no idea he was even a full fledged doctor. If you are not old enough to consider marriage, you should be careful about having a serious, exclusive relationship. Most of us were Mormons and one point, many of us were even TBMs. This was hard for me because my faith is deeply rooted within me.
Its was written in shorthand so its hard to read. If it is even possible, would it strengthen or weaken their ability to develop a personal relationship with their Heavenly Father. I actually had one of my friends say to me, " why are you worried about what he is doing when you aren't there he spends hundreds of dollars on you when you are there who cares that he hasn't texted you".
I am so glad I found this blog. Like many single members of the church, I have often wondered whether I would be willing to marry someone outside of the temple, and over the past few years I have come to believe that I would be willing to do so. I thought it was beautiful that they included him in the circle, even though he was not a Priesthood holder. I prayed about whether to marry this man, and I felt and still feel strongly that it was right for me. He said that if there is an exception, it is for the individual to obtain through the spirit.
Marry a person based on his character, not his religion. If you aren't sealed together, say good-bye for eternity. Even Mormon girls who marry non-Mormons want great dads for their kids, and they are oriented to having kids, sometimes many kids.
