This is by design. It sucks but ultimately what Mormonism does to people is it makes them value adherence to church more than their relationships with people. Sorry if I gave that impression.
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. I also felt like I could never be a good wife. These girls are nervous around non-Mormons. And after years of this struggle, will your love for him and desire to avoid the hassle cause you to reduce your activation. Now he is home for dinner every night, takes a fraction of the calls, and doesn't work holidays. There may be underlying personality similarities, but if the answer to "what shall I do next" is always trumped by a Morman frame of reference for one partner, but not the other, conflict is inevitable. That contributes to status in her culture. I learned how truly very Mormon I really am, to the deepest part of my soul.
Let's talk about kids. Doctor's often set their priorities as: When I give my husband the "busy as hell" attitude he gets worried about our relationship. Ask her if her parents buy their underwear from a bookstore. This can keep the relationship from getting too exclusive, and spending time with more people can give you a wider variety of things to do.
A lot of Mormons think that good people will obviously recognize the truthfulness of the church and quickly join. I chose to get married and move across the state to live with my husband and left my job, family and friends and let me tell you, it's been tremendously difficult to meet new friends in the new town. Have those candid conversations with HIM, ponder, and listen closely for the guidance of the Holy Ghost. Through this, if you run into unforeseen issues like sold out movies or you cannot get a seat at a restaurant, you will always have a backup plan.
