Your probably thinking of a sect of the Mormons, I'm sure there is one like that. Say goodbye to all that. Most couples who are married where one is a Mormon and the other isn't, usually stems from a situation where they both were married in the temple, then one of them lost their faith sometime after that.
Stopped answering texts and calls, refused to give me my belongings that he moved up to the new place, and not to mention he broke up with me over the phone after all of those years. I also didn't want to push him away by overwhelming him with talks about commitment when he's already stressed. They therefore have a high standard to work toward. When DH comes in he is still gone more than half the time. I have been a doctor's wife for almost 8 years. The church will be in your bedroom, finances, and all your decisions.
I'm keeping myself occupied with my kid, work but I wonder if my career will ever take precedence. Of course my parents love each other very much and would not choose another spouse, which is why her response caught me off guard. There will always be difference between spouses. Mormonism is a big thing for those who follow the faith, so Sundays and the occasional event depending on how much she does extra might distract her.
Like Suha, I have also been married almost 28 years and have done pretty much everything myself for so, so long. It is easier and more enjoyable for him to zone out in the world of sweat and toil much like his school and training and work than to get to know me. We have family prayer every day and read the scriptures occasionally. It is a tradeoff at best. It's the extra socializing, hanging out with residents, stopping by the hospital to visit his best friend. I simply do NOT believe he and I will not be together after we die. I'm really glad to hear a few of you have stories of happy interfaith relationships, or leaving the church together, so there's always a chance.
