Relationship Advice by Proxy

[debetesse]

Ok, hivemind, I need you. My little brother (HS Sophomore) is dating a Mormon (he, himself is toward the Left end of UCC. Basically, last door on the Left of Christianity). He really likes her, but is getting irritated with her habit of trying to convert him (she does not realize or does not acknowledge that she is doing so).

I suggested arguing theology with her. He cited her use of my fav. line ever: "pray on it and it will be revealed to you". Oy.

I suggested trying to convert her back (to Wicca, if I'm being snarky), so that it's forced to consciousness. He said that was mean.

I pointed out my lack of boyfriend, and that perhaps I should ask the 'istas. He agreed, so I'm asking.

Please remember that she's young and he actually wants to continue this relationship (although he has expressed reservations in the past wrt LDS's stance on homosexuality. Go Team Tolerance). Any ideas?

I like the whole "convert her to Wicca" idea, although then he runs the risk of her running off with some cute wannablessedbe.

I'm also the wrong person to be asking for relationship advice, so I'll just stand quietly over in the corner, shall I?

Please, this is Southern Indiana. There are maybe 12 in her age range who are male (switching teams is a whole other level of AU). And that's in the entire 812 area code.

Welcome to the corner.
