I just cannot explain how much it is NOT like a catholic dating a protestant in this day and age. It is like old school religious conflict. Of course this deist/big into sentiment and feeling/despressive disordered person dating a mormon/stoic/obsessive compulsive disordered person leads me to believe that three were more problems than just the religion. At his age, I almost think that if he really likes her, he can keep up a relationship for about a year without it being an issue, which may be OK at 15.

So I'm guessing a movie night double bill of Bash and Latter Days wouldn't be helpful?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Please remember that she's young and he actually wants to continue this relationship (although he has expressed reservations in the past wrt LDS's stance on homosexuality. Go Team Tolerance). Any ideas?

At that age, or any age, really, they'll either find that they can move past it (there are people in the church who don't agree with all the official stances, after all), or that they can't. My only suggestion would be that, whenever he feels she's to sway him to the wonders of her world, he stop and gently point out what she's doing, and why it reads as an effort to convert him.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, anyone want to deal with the shit I have to get done tonight for me? Because I sure don't want to. It's not even much -- some ironing, maybe a little student loan consolidation....

OK. I'm going to put on coffee (for iced, in the morning) and do the damn ironing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Today, I had planned to marinate a roast for Friday and some chicken for tomorrow. And there's making dinner for tonight.

Don't wanna.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Phew! I did it! OK, "it" wasn't much, but still. I ironed my pants and wet down my shirt for tomorrow, and made three days' worth of iced coffee.

I get weirdly stressed out when I have meetings that start at 9, given the fact that my morning routine includes catching up here. I could just, you know, not do that, and get in at 8:50 no problem.

My lunch meeting forgot to check her email. Re-scheduled for tomorrow. Which means I have to dress not!casually for the second day in a row.

Bleah.

That's annoying, Consuela. Is there any worry about getting busted for the not-casual? It is a meeting about a job, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Consuela, as someone who just lost her casual Friday, I both sympathise with your pain and delight in it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Phew! I did it! OK, "it" wasn't much, but still. I ironed my pants and wet down my shirt for tomorrow, and made three days' worth of iced coffee.

So much better than ironing your shirt and wetting your pants. Though the three days' worth of iced coffee makes it explicable.
