I know my husband appreciates me looking into it because he knows I am doing it to gain an understanding into the culture he was raised in. Mixed races, however, are NOT tied into opposing beliefs and mixed races don't try to "convert" each other. We generally don't talk on the phone, but text a few times throughout the week. Maybe about a year ago. Thanks again for the continued comments and replies to my edit.
I am talking to a Surgeon from US, from an equally good college, for a possible marriage. The important thing is doing it together. You may look on here and see all of us, but a lot of us got out much much older. As a physician buckling under the stress, my assigned counsellor who is also a church minister told me: So, what do I do with that. Ask Mormon Girl is the blog of author Joanna Brooks. I fear the idea of growing to resent him. If you are very much willing to accept and understand all of these, whether you are a Mormon or not, you can expect that it is fun to date a Mormon girl.
Thanks for the help. I would need to ask my husband again. Not being an RM, they weren't really interested in me. However, that doesn't mean I am in a situation where I can call or text or anything. Not every LDS person does, unfortunately. But that was also a possibility if he had married a non-mormon. I hear you, I need my down time to decompress and watch stuff on the Internet, haha.
He also brought up issues with the church when we discussed religion so slowly he brought to light some disturbing facts and even though I would have denied it, it got to me. What if love is looking someone in the eye and saying, "You're making the biggest mistake of your life. Sooo, I guess my question is Did I dodge a bullet or do new residents go crazy, but eventually come back to their senses. It may not seem like a big deal now, but eventually it will probably surface that at best, the church impacts and influences her behavior in almost every area, at worst, it dictates it. 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. Yes, it is bad. You should be fine as long as you stick to the lines you have laid out.
