Are LDS people allowed to date other non-LDS?

Answer 1

Yes it is allowed. Each member makes their own choice of who they do and do not date.

The reason why many LDS singles choose to date only other members of the LDS church is because they wish to date someone who lives by the same righteous standards they do. They date members who, if they fall in love, they can be married to in an LDS temple for time and all eternity. Only LDS members of the church who live righteous LDS standards can enter the temple.

It's really very romantic. These members choose to find a love that can last forever, not just 'till death do they part'.

Answer 2

Yes! Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) can date and/or marry whomever they want. They are encouraged to seek out those who have common moral standards as them, and are told who they can and cannot have a relationship with. But, it is still the mormon's choice who they date (though there is an ample amount of shaming following a choice that other mormons do not believe is "right"). Multi-faith marriages are quite common among Mormons, though these couples are not sealed in the mormon temple. The reason a mormon may be hesitant to date a non mormon is they want to be sealed to their spouse in the temple, and only mormons can enter the temple.

Answer 3

Youth of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ("Mormons") are counseled by church leaders to always maintain their moral standards in any company. Youth are also encouraged to date only those with high standards like themselves. However, there is nothing against dating an individual who is not a church member.

Answer 4

Yes, they can. However, they are encouraged not to marrynon-mormons because of possible religious problems between the couple later in the marraige.
