Thanks. I am honestly not sure if I want to stay with him or not. I want my marriage to be a sacramental marriage. I honestly think I will just break up with him.Well, I, for one, think it’s great that you love this person and he loves you in return.
I don’t think religious beliefs should get in the way of having a relationship with him, but keep in mind, if you two reach marriage and have children of your own, that’s where the problem will lie. Hopefully, you would be able to work something out.
Ending your relationship, for the sake of differing religions, is not the best idea, but nevertheless, it is entirely up to you.
I wish you and your boyfriend the best of luck.

Couldn’t you talk to him, first?
I could but it’s too late for that. I already sent him the message. I feel bad now.
It’s never too late to go back and explain. You may have a change of heart.I could but it’s too late for that. I already sent him the message. I feel bad now.
Yeah I felt the same way. That and besides, I know that having a Mormon boyfriend would only tempt me to rejoin the Mormon church and I don’t want to do that.If you have doubts, I think you are answering your own question. I think people often interpret attraction as love, when it is really no more that two people being emotionally attracted. That is why many relationships and marriages fail…they were attracted to their initial delight, but when the relationship calls for genuine love it fails. Books, films, magazines, songs and poems have a lot to answer for in their misrepresentation of what love actually is.
Anyway, may the Lord guide you.
God bless you.
You are right. However, I already explained myself in my message to him. He’s not responding to my messages so I will wait for him to respond before I talk to him again if he chooses to talk to me.It’s never too late to go back and explain. You may have a change of heart.

Holly, I think you’ve hit on the reason not to continue with this relationship. Given your problems and going back and forth with Mormonism, this relationship would just add serious force to your temptation.
Dear HollyHi everyone. I am in a relationship with a Mormon guy. It is still very early on in this current relationship but we have dated before and we do love each other. My question is, should I end this relationship? He is a Mormon and does not have any intentions to convert to Catholicism even though he enjoys studying it. So, I am just wondering if it is a wise idea for me to remain in this relationship? What do you think?
I agree FCEGM. It would add serious force to my temptation. And that is why I have chosen not to stay in a relationship with him.
Thank you Eucharisted. I am trying my best to stay out of mortal sin since I just went to confession about 30 minutes ago. I also received the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick for my mental disorders and I received the Eucharist as well. I am feeling quite well right now.:hug1: Hugs for when you feel despair, depression, and doubt, should the devil attack you with them after breaking up.
Continue to trust in God. If He wills you to become a wife and mommy, He will make you one! So ask Him to make you a saint.
Hi John Russell Jr. I am also not sure if I am called to marriage or not. I just get so tired of being single sometimes. I get so lonely you know. But then, I guess that sometimes I might forget that Jesus is always there waiting for me to talk to Him if I need to so I’m never truly alone.Dear Holly
It can work but is all too often a lot of headaches. I’m not called to marriage but if I was it would only be to a practising catholic. I don’t see how it could work otherwise.
God bless and peace to you:thumbsup:

My vocational discernment is a source of much confusion for me. Earlier today I felt called to the convent as I have felt called to the convent many times in the past as well. There have been times before (mostly when in a state of mortal sin) that I feel called to marriage. And then most of the time I think I am called just to live the single life because my borderline personality disorder would make any relationship difficult and it would also make convent life difficult. So I am thinking that perhaps I am just called to singleness and that I am to eventually join a Third Order or something like that.
Thanks FCEGM.
Tough question. One which only you can answer.Hi everyone. I am in a relationship with a Mormon guy. It is still very early on in this current relationship but we have dated before and we do love each other. My question is, should I end this relationship? He is a Mormon and does not have any intentions to convert to Catholicism even though he enjoys studying it. So, I am just wondering if it is a wise idea for me to remain in this relationship?

, or a Christian of a different communion, but marriage to a non-chrsitian; NOT a good idea, unless he would consider converting?
