Mormonism is a lot more controlling and has a lot more downsides. I knew I was going to be alone much of the time and for the most part I can handle it. He went out and purchased a promise ring, but was holding off on giving it to me. You are atheist and that's not changing.
There are other occasions for humor, but these two are off the table. I have been happily married to a non-mormon for 20 years. Before I met my husband I had dated quite a few members and some relationships were quite serious but I never felt right about it. Maybe watch "Going Clear" with her.
How the Book of Abraham was translated from Egyptian scrolls. If you shift his way, be prepared for the social costs of inactivityвplus, if you really believe the doctrine, a crisis of faith. The date night strategy is a great idea, and we have tried it, but he is sometimes on call every other night for a month and it makes it tough the nights he's on call he likes to be home just in case and the nights he's not on call, he needs to sleep in case he's up all night the following night.
Ask her out on dates. If kids ever came into the picture though, I wouldn't want to be isolated from them psychologically or banned from walking my daughter down the aisle someday. Anything she learned about mormonsim, she wanted to learn on her own. I remember attending numerous priesthood meetings by myself and wishing dad were next to me. Yes, worse than intern year. No one could compare to the man I married.
