These exclusions, dictated by doctrine, hold the potential to create wedges between you, both immediately, and in the long term. The ideal, in my opinion, is that she discovers what we all know about the lies the church tells her. And Mormons were basically encouraged to marry other mormons. Trying to maintain a long-distance relationship with someone at home or attempting to date someone you meet while on mission are both distractions. Some of my family approves of my marriage and some does not.
