Hi!
I'd like to start by saying that I am a non-Mormon girl. However, I joined this site because I am trying to learn more about the religion, having seriously dated a Mormon boy for the past year. He left for his mission three weeks ago, and I am having trouble coping so I thought that joining this site might help.
He has taught me about many of the Mormon beliefs and I am trying to approach the religion with an open mind, but it's hard, having grown up in a household that did not even believe in God. I guess I am starting with a clean slate though, so it's probably easier for me than for others who have grown up believing in a different religion.
Anyway, I'm afraid when he gets back he'll be even more religious and I'll just be here the same as before and we won't be able to make it work. So that's pretty much it, I'll be around reading postings and commenting.
Thanks!
