Oh

Are you dating someone right now or just talking about later on in general?

Dating someone now. The whole explanation is in that big post I made above.

That is a very wise perspective.

I am in a relationship right now (you know who it's with if you've been paying attention, you peoples who hang out in the wider community section) but both of us have decided to put it on pause while I'm gone. And possibly more than that. I feel like it's not fair for her if I expect her to put her romantic life on hold for two years while I'm gone. Because what if she meets someone who would make a better husband for her while I'm gone, or what if I'd meet someone who'd make a better wife for me months or years after I get back? 

Basically we're just putting our trust in God and saying "whatever needs to happen will happen." I don't want either of our focuses to be on each other when we have more important stuff to be doing. Me in my service, her in planning out the next steps in her life (she's a little less than a year younger than me.)

So yeah.

The funny thing is, my parents had a relationship in high school, and did the same thing, and they still ended up together...so who knows. Regardless, the main takeaway from their story was that stopping their relationship before my dad left let both of them focus on what they needed to do, and lead them to the life they needed. Whether or not a present relationship works out two years from now shouldn't matter, in my mind, as long as you've grown enough to be a worthy companion down the line. And the spirit guides in that choice.

Yeah, it might still hurt in the moment if it doesn't work out. But that doesn't mean I don't have a bright and happy future in store.

Ah, yeah. Honestly that's something I've thought a lot about with Null- though there are some other things going on that I'll keep to myself.

We'll see what happens, I guess.

*hugs anyway*

It's not the kind of thing that needs hugs, exactly. It's just the next step in this journey called life. I've received many witnesses that everything's going to turn out fine for me, if I follow the direction I'm given. Yeah, it might be uncomfortable from time to time, but it's like in Romans 8:18: "For I reckon the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us."

Following that story was insane, I have known couple that got together pretty quickly after a mission cause they talked during it. My parents got married within eight months of knowing each other, thirty years together soon enough.
