"Mixed" marriages?

[Matrona]

I wanted a husband. So I found him.

LOL!!!

I need an Orthodox boy and fast. I think I mentioned this in the Taverna, that the only other people at my church who are my age are engaged to each other.

/me is loooonely!

It's seen as preferable (and personally I can't imagine being married to someone who wasn't Orthodox, I don't think I could live like that), but it is not required.

Still, I keep my sights set on nice Orthodox boys. I have had an evangelical "Christian" boy dump me about a year ago because he knew I was going to become Orthodox (I was a catechumen at the time) and he 'didn't know' whether we 'believed in the same Christ' or not.

And after the way I got to, um, know him, I'd say DEFINITELY NOT.

So anyway, that's why I stay the hell away from the Campus Crusaders, and I scope out the single guys at OCF every week.

Matrona,
You're such a pretty girl and so charming, I cannot imagine you having all this trouble. What's wrong with the boys at your school????

Re: that "Christian" boy : what a git.

As for Campus Crusade: I don't blame you. I've been witness to many of their shenanigans over the years. Remind them of the reasons P. Gillquist left ! LOL!!! My friend Katie is Catholic. Her daughters are attending schools out of state. One of them called in tears a few months ago to say that she had been to a CC party and that a good many young folks, along with their "leader", had sort of ganged up on her, and told her she wasn't really "saved" and that she was going to hell because she was a Mary worshipper, blah, blah, blah....She was so very upset. At the time, I was still a dyed in the wool Baptist, so I felt eminently qualified to ring them up and read them the Riot Act. So I did, and she received several phone calls and apologies from that group, but she never went back....
