Of course my parents love each other very much and would not choose another spouse, which is why her response caught me off guard. The big one is that under Mormon theology both of you must be believing, fully active members to live together in the afterlife. It has always been like this.
She's told me the church is one of the most important things to her, but from what I've researched already there's no way I would subject my future children to this culture. Sadly, my ward shuns us. He will eventually have more time for you, but right now he is likely giving you all the time that he can, even though it is very little. In fact, your GF is probably one of the countless Mormon women who get married only to find out they have zero sex drive because of what they learned growing up.
