Hm...I should probably not make as many snide remarks when hearing about mission buddies who came back after I did and are already engaged.

nice article. A lot of old singles would do well to search the reasons they are also not seeking the happiness that is promised by Heavenly Father when we following the Prophets in creating lasting Family relationships with others through marriage.

Having enjoyed the institution now for almost 24 years, I can say with both conviction and enthusiasm, come join the ranks!

My wife and I met in a great singles ward in Las Vegas. We are both returned missionaries and dated a while before our missions. Even though it's been years and now I have four kids in singles wards but not much has changed.

The leadership often do go overboard pushing marriage and making these often still immature young people repel from the council. Still I had a blast in the Singles wards I went to and so are my kids. Lighten up enjoy your time there, do date and watch out for those girls who slide a finger down your back checking for garments and those guys who propose to every girl who gives them the time of day. Oh and then there was the girl who wrote to 20 or more of us on our missions and asked all of us to come home and marry her. As I recall that worked for her. Singles wards can be so great, crazy, fun, and if you have a good sense of humor there is more than enough characters to fill any journal. You're keeping one right?
