VideoGameJunkie Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Nehor, this girl is more mature than me. I have the maturity of a 17 year old anyway. 1
Buckeye Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Wyoming is awesome! Land of Yellowstone national park and the grand Tetons!!We can't be friends if you don't like Wyoming. It's also the land of endless Little America signs.
Mola Ram Suda Ram Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 There is one sister that gets back from her mission in December that I like and have a crush on. Unfortunately I'll be 30 and she'll only be 22. 8 year difference. This is why I hate getting older and still being single, while I'm most attracted to girls in their 20s.Your fine, date her.
Mola Ram Suda Ram Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Nehor, this girl is more mature than me. I have the maturity of a 17 year old anyway.Well, you are supposed to marry up. Just saying.
jkwilliams Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Well, you are supposed to marry up. Just saying. I married up. I would think that's obvious.
Okrahomer Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Wyoming is awesome! Land of Yellowstone national park and the grand Tetons!!We can't be friends if you don't like Wyoming. ...and the land where aliens first came to visit our planet!!! 1
HappyJackWagon Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 I mean this in the nicest possible way but if the immaturity of girls a decade younger then you at your age does not feel off putting in terms of a relationship you may want to take a look at that. It would be really immature of a man in his thirties to marry teenagers. We may want to take a look at that. 1
The Nehor Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 It would be really immature of a man in his thirties to marry teenagers. We may want to take a look at that.I give people a pass on this if God commands it.If an angel came and told me to marry a 19 year old I would probably do the handshake test but then would have to follow through if he or she passed. 4

The Nehor Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) Nehor, this girl is more mature than me. I have the maturity of a 17 year old anyway.You may want to work on that. Everyone who dates 17 year olds finds them insufferable including other 17 year olds. Edited July 30, 2015 by The Nehor 2
halconero Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Has it been that long since the Union Hills YSA ward? I rounded up a bit. As far as Union Hills YSA ward, yup, it was 4 years ago this month that Elder Perkins and I first arrived there.
Daniel2 Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 This is really nothing new.I did marry an RM but I did not meet her on my mission.My husband and I are both RMs. Ironically, he served his mission in the same European country I lived in while in the military, but we didn't meet till decades later. My mission was in South America. Having a shared background as RMs has strengthened our marriage.
ttribe Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) Married another RM from my mission (she was Deaf Program, so only in our mission for a limited time). Our 21st wedding anniversary was yesterday. Edited July 30, 2015 by ttribe
bluebell Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 It's also the land of endless Little America signs.I-80 exists to convince people to stay away from Wyoming. It's our secret weapon. Little America is part of that program.
Jeanne Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 I'm appalled. Missionaries who married someone they met on their mission were clearly not focused properly on the work. I would never have done something like that. Oh, wait, I did. also..shouldn't there be a time to reflect after missions and to wield some kind of life of your own before you marry? Way to fast in any case IMO. Both of them should have time to breath alitltle and it kind of reflects where there hearts may really have been as far as dedication. Gees..all these girls that wanted to go on missions could have got married at home and at least a little education behind them. Me thinks it is scary..fo the church..it is definitely something to think about. 2

Me thinks it is scary..fo the church..it is definitely something to think about.I recall seeing that the average marrying age in the church is 24 years old. That's creping up dangerously close to the 30 year old "menace to society" level. Gotta push down that average age a little bit.
Tacenda Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Turning 30 next month, I feel my chances of finding a girl in her 20s to be dwindling, but finding a sweet RM girl would be nice. At this point though it doesn't matter if a girl is an RM or not, I'm just trying to find a Mormon single girl.Have you or some others on this board even seen this?!?! http://www.ldsplanet.com/
Sevenbak Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 I had an AP that married the mission presidents daughter... That was late 80s. Times haven't changed much.
VideoGameJunkie Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Tacenda, you have to pay a lot of money for ldsplanet. I tried it when I lived in Massachusetts and only got Phillipines women hitting on me who wanted husbands with money. I deleted my account. Maybe I should try it again since I live in Utah now.
cinepro Posted July 30, 2015 Author Posted July 30, 2015 ...and the land where aliens first came to visit our planet!!! FWIW, I just watched that movie a few weeks ago with my kids. They had watched the fourth Indiana Jones movie (against a standing household rule), and I came in as it was ending. Since they were interested in watching Stephen Spielberg alien movies, I put this on. My older kids had seen it but my youngest hadn't. My only complaint is that the Blu-ray menu shows the Devil's Tower, which is kind of a spoiler for those who haven't seen it yet. Interestingly, Spielberg now sees the ending of the movie differently, and part of that is reflected in the 1998 re-cut of the film (which more clearly shows the separation of Roy from his family): I know that “Close Encounters,” because I wrote the script, it was about a man whose insatiable curiosity and a developing obsession and a kind of psychic implantation drew him away from his family and with only looking back once, walked onto the mother ship. Now, that was before I had kids. That was 1977. So I wrote that blithely. Today, I would never have the guy leaving his family and going on the mother ship. I would have the guy doing everything he could to protect his children, so in a sense, “War of the Worlds” does reflect my own maturity, in my own life, growing up and now having seven children. http://web.archive.org/web/20080206185633/http://www.cinecon.com/news.php?id=0506281 1

How about taking cooking classes or something like that?Or the universities have classes that go on adventures of different sorts.Or the LDS singles groups that meet. I can't imagine how tough it'd be to meet your significant other.
Duncan Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Oh, I didn't know that it costs so much.

Garden Girl Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 There is one sister that gets back from her mission in December that I like and have a crush on. Unfortunately I'll be 30 and she'll only be 22. 8 year difference. This is why I hate getting older and still being single, while I'm most attracted to girls in their 20s. I agree with The Nehor... To me, 8 years seems just fine if the maturity level is compatible... My husband was 17 years... yes, 17... years older than me. But the difference is that I was always mature for my age and dated older boys even in high school and college... The only trouble with being that much of an age difference is that we knew that if things went along statistically, that I'd be alone for a number of years... which is exactly what happened albeit somewhat unexpectedly. My husband died from unforeseen complications following surgery at age 74... I was 58... Now I'm 74 and I've been widowed for almost 17 years. So to me 8 years difference doesn't seem that great, depending on the individuals involved... GG 2
Tacenda Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 I see 13 yr olds in "relationships" and I stutter if there is a female clerk while I am ordering at Burger King!Well apparently you need someone hiding behind the wall feeding you lines. 1
