Missionary Girlfriend?
Posted On 10/30/2012 17:04:22 by AlanaSherm55
Hi, I am currently waiting on my missionary. He will return October 17, 2014. I really do love him, I have been praying and praying and throughout the weeks it has only become clear to me that I want to spend the rest of my life with him. He brings me closer to God, he inspires me, he brings out the best in me. He loves me for everything I am, and I have been supporting him since day one to go on his mission. Although I am Catholic, I spend time reading the Book of Mormon, going to church with him, and investigating the faith. I'm not sure what the future holds, but I know that I want my future to be with him. I know the statistics are against us, saying that 95% percent of girls don't end up waiting, or the relationships don't end up working out. But I am committed one hundred percent to us. I am committed to supporting him in his faith, being a shoulder to lean on, a best friend, whatever he needs during his mission. I am committed to whatever he needs to flourish and ge the most out of the journey of serving a mission. I just wanted some input. Have any of you waited for a missionary and ended up being together?

I am a former MG (missionary girlfriend) from January 2007 to February 2009. I waited for my missionary until he returned home and we were married in June 2009. We had dated 3 years before his mission and I supported him the best I could while he was serving. Its hard being away from someone you care about but it can be a very rewarding experience, regardless if things don't exactly work out in the end with your relationship.

I was actually part of a Missionary girlfriend waiting group on facebook. When I joined, it just started with only a handful of girls. Now its overfilled with 1000+ members. It really helped me to be apart of a group who was going through the emotional roller coaster of waiting for a missionary. The group is named Waiting for a missionary! Anyone who is waiting for a missionary is welcome to join! Definitely check it out! :)
