not sure what to say...
besides mr nice guy telling me he was still in love with me...(not just love MADLY in love), there is really nothing going on. i have recently come back to some of the sewing and crafting that i used to love so much. my creativity comes in spurts and i try to take advantage of it.
as far as men, i am kind of fed up. single men in the church are a hot mess and i just dont feel like dealing with it. no more dances, socials, or firesides. i just dont wanna do it. sure, if i know of some amazing speaker at a fireside, i will go, but i am completely doing away with my new years resolution to become more involved.
i am benched. benching myself and i dont even care.
i would chalk it up to the weather, maybe some early onset S.A.D.D, but fall is my favorite time of year. i think its just the circumstances and my general failure in the relationship area.
this isnt depression-its resolution.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI just got back into the single scene and came across your blog. I'm also blogging about my experience and I'd love your comments.

Hi there, I'm considering joining LDS but have some questions only a woman could answer....is there any way I could contact you about it, or just write it on here? Thanks!
ReplyDeletefeel free to write it on here. :)
ReplyDeleteNot sure if you got my question or not, but trying it again
ReplyDeleteI’m a female in my mid 20s and not a member of LDS but am looking into the idea of joining. What I’m trying to figure out is….I guess, would there be a point in my life outside the church? I’ve been a typical young woman shall we say, and do not want kids. Have a degree, a job, etc. I’ve read elsewhere these sorts of thing could mean that if I were to join, I’d basically end up alone for life. Not that I’d join looking for a husband, but if it came down to the only way I marry someday (which I do want to) is to marry a non member, that seems a bit silly to join in the first place. I understand this might make me sound like a horrible person, but I’m only now really pursuing the idea of being active in a religion for the first time in my life. Only I feel like I might be too old for it in some ways. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
sorry its taken me so long. i did read the comment and have been thinking of what to say. well i know what to say, just trying to formulate it into something understandable.
ReplyDeletejust a few thoughts. you are not too old. you dont have to be married and have kids to be a good mormon. some might want you to believe that, but its not a requirement of membership.
there is more i want to say, sorry i am being so brief right now.
ReplyDeletealso-when you say you have been a "typical" young woman, i assume you mean sexually active-if that is correct, you might meet a few guys who have a problem with that, but i assure you there are lds men who understand that the world does not subscribe to our values and that by being baptized you are forgiven. Heavenly Father deosnt remember your sins, so they shouldnt. You will not be alone and you wont have to look outside the church. the gospel according to singlemormonchick. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha thanks, you're awesome!
