We actually met on ldsmingle.com about six months after my divorce. I wasn't looking for someone so far away, but she sent me a smile and she was cute so we became friends. We emailed, chatted, and text messaged each other constantly every day for two and a half years before I could finally bring her into the country. I know it sounds crazy. I'm not one of those desperate old men looking for a concubine or servant. But when you find "the one" you'll do absolutely anything to be with her.

Welcome to Ligonier Ministries

and i still have yet to click your links because i just really don't even care.

i suggest sticking to your own belief instead of trying to tear down others (no snickering Katz i learned my lesson)

Technically she's LDS. She hasn't been active in many years and is probably still on the books as being a member, but she doesn't express any interest in going back.

my Sympathies and prayers are with you and i hope that maybe one day you will return. Excommunication is not a condemnation, it is a relase of covenants to make repentance easier. we can always recover from wherever we are in life.

I'm suprised i was not excommunicated after my 5 years stint of inactivity. "ebaucherous fun" as you put it, and I am definitely not proud of it anymore. and realized that sometimes we have to learn from our own mistakes rather than the mistakes of others. I never lost my testimony, i just didn't want to "follow the rules" but then i learned that the rules are there to protect us from harms way, not to restrict us. they truely are to perfect us and have us reach our potential as Children of our heavenly father.
