He's Mormon, I am no specific religion. I like to occasionally drink & smoke. I listen to "dirty" music & watch porn. I think GLBT should have equal rights. I was his first, but I am far from innocent. We have sex every time we see each other. He doesn't feel bad about it. Right now he spends the night with me every once in a while. He decided not to go on his Mormon Mission (a 2 year long thing 19 year old Mormon boys do)& just go to school & us live together instead.

I always ask him am I a "bad girl" phase (like girls have "bad boy" phases), But he insists he loves me & it's forever. I also always ask him "Are you allowed to do this and that, isn't it a sin" but again he insists he is a human being allowed to do whatever he wants.

Honestly, I am and have became a better person since we've been together. We both still have a lot of growing up to do.

Also, another thing he doesn't ever really talk about God, or his religion around me. He always seems uncomfortable when it's brought up.....

    Don't feel bad, Mormonism isn't even a religion anyway. Seriously, read it's history. The guy who invented it, Joseph Smith, was a charlatan, plain and simple. He was even wanted for fraud.. what does that tell you..?

    You're either neutral or even a good influence on him, especially because of your support of gay rights, which sadly a lot of religious people don't understand. Don't listen to these people saying religion is a bad thing. If it makes people happy and gives them a sense of purpose, and even helps them to cope with tragedy better, it's not a bad thing.

    You're a good influence on him. Religion is the bad influence. Keep fighting it, maybe you'll get him to see reason and quit.

    Ahh the mormon mission is pretty sick, i would become a mormon just for it.

    but like everyone says if he doesnt have an issue with it neither should you, i doubt youre a bad influence. Be careful though his first wife might get jealous hehe

    No, i don't think you are a bad influence.

    It sounds like you are mutually improving one another.

    Try not to worry, and best of luck to the both of you!

    He seems like a very good and nice boyfriend. I think it's a good thing to be afraid you're a bad influence on him, it means you obviously care. I do however think that as long as he says you aren't, you shouldn't question that. If I were you i'd try to be as 'good' a person as him when he's around tho.
