  1. Hey, Thanks for all the quite response! I really appreciate all the different opinions. I think what I am going to do is hang with him. I don't feel like I should force my opions on him. As long as he tries to not do it around me, or make it difficult for me to hold my standards, I won't worry about it. Thanks again!
  2. I was wondering if anyone here can help me with a small delema I am having. I have been going out with this guy for almost a year and I really like him but one thing bugs me, I know he swears. Almost never around me (small things slip occasionaly) but I know he does it around his friends and thinks there is nothing wrong with it or actually more like doesn't think it is wrong enough to change. For me, I have been a member all my life surrounded by member family and friends and swearing and profanity have always been a big no, no. He has been a member since he was 7, and is a great guy over all, but his family and friends are not. Most of the youth at church are in the same predicament as well, but he tries harder than most, for me. Since moving here, I am pretty sure I have been a big influence on him, he is trying a lot harder to be "temple worthy". For a long time I really wanted to believe he didn't say such things, then when he slipped and said a few really little common ones, I thought, or hoped he only said those things. I know his friends use the REALLY bad language (I hope you understand the diffenece between little and REALLY bad, I am not sure how to explain), but I hoped he didn't follow, I wanted him to be better than that. But the other day, he let a REALLY bad one slip. He apologized, but I just wanted to cry. Am I overreacting? Should I talk to him about the importance of clean language? The longer I go I start to doubt myself and start rationalizing why it is OK. What do I say? I don't know, it sure seems to be much ado over nothing but I could sure use your advice. Thanks
