I get it - he's dedicated years of his life to his craft and he has one chance to roll the dice. Which is the highest place in heaven aka celestial kingdom. Not every LDS person does, unfortunately. Its really much harder than what I thought. She was fine marrying in an LDS church instead of the temple, didn't want to convert me, and most importantly didn't try to change my beliefs or opinions. I've found it extremely difficult particularly as he does not know how to communicate. That is her ultimate goal when it comes to dating and choosing potential mates. This is tough enough when the kids are babies, but when they're older - teenagers - you'll get to tackle all of the hormone-fueled angst, drama, school difficulties, homework, school activities, and be the scapegoat when the kids get mad at you. We are still struggling to put our life back together for the sake of our marriage and our 3 boys, but it is a difficult path.
The church is very important to her. Same boat, if we have plans, he usually ends up. What a fascinating response as always.
And, for anyone "dating" a married doctor. I let people assume what they will. The kids are so involved and I am busy with them but I long for my husband to work less.
I find there are less disappointments when I know I am completely on my own. It's why TBMs are so bugged by people that leave the church. He is coming to church with me and our daughter for the ward Christmas program. Lots of really thorough replies. Interfaith marriage is but one variety of the learning experience. You've stated that she had numerous guys break up with her after she took sex off the table. There are over promises in the Bible.
