Waiting for Missionaries/Willard takes a leap

“Why, Wally Kessler, you ought to be ashamed of yourself.”

86% of pre-mission relationships do not end in marriage, according to this article. It makes sense that through all that time, people would grow apart and either find someone new (hopefully only the girls are doing this) or just not be as compatible by the time they get back together. Of course, lots of those relationships probably wouldn’t have ended in marriage even without the mission. Still, it’s interesting how people change. Hopefully married people can change together and not grow apart the same way.

On a separate note, Willard did it. Willard told one of the girls that likes him that he doesn’t want to send the wrong signals or waste any of her time. She sent him a facebook message saying that she likes him, and he had to be honest so she doesn’t feel worse later on. Willard hopes she takes it well. She’s a good girl.
