ok so here it is ....i have had a really big crush on a friend of mine for a month now and everyone is telling me that he likes me too. the problem is that he is mormon. and i am not. i really want to be with him but it is against his parents rules to date a non mormon, so i was wondering what yall think i should do? i was also wondering if anyone knew anything about mormonism that they could give me? i wanted to know if i should convert and become mormon so we could date and it be ok, or if i should date him and keep it from everyone, or just forget about it all together? but i dont know what to do and i really like him.PLEASE HELP ME FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO!
Well, i'm mormon too... (or techinically LDS: Latter-day saint) so i think I'll try to help! Well first of all... unless you and him are both 16 it's DEFINATELY a no go. We believe in not dating until 16, so that's important to know. Also, i'd talk to him, see if it's just rumors that his parents won't let him date non-LDS people. If it really is true, then i would suggest asking him if you could go to church on day with him... i have to warn you it is 3 hours, so it's kind of long, but you go to three different meetings too (sacrament [which is the main part of church], then Class [with the guys and girls of the same age], then young men or young women's [depending on what gender you are, lol]) going to church wil definately help his parents grow on you, and if you become LDS and get baptizied than it's even better! of course you should remember that you choice to become LDS shouldn't be based on just wanting to be able to date your friend. It should be based on if you accpet the gospel or not. If you want to convert, you need to understand all that mormans stand for, and all their priniples. make the decisions based on what you feel in your heart, and what your consience tells you! and also talk to your friend! he would be more than happy to teach you more about his religion, and can arrange for others (with more LDS knowledge) to talk to you about becoming LDS. i think you should go for this guy, and if you feel for him (and the LDS church) strongly enough than don't be afriad to convert! If you need more info check out LDS.org, or AIM me, and also feel free to ask me anymore questions! I really hope i helped you!
