I've never heard of such a thing. Why would you need counselling before getting married?Originally Posted by EL72
Not sure if that's a joke but bo you really think a few hours of listening to someone's religious views on marriage will help the clueless who post in those threads?Originally Posted by EL72
Now that I think about it, there was a Rabbi I spoke to prior to getting to married who suggested my wife attend a class in order to learn the Jewish laws of family purity.
The Catholic Church's counseling thing is pretty much that- a futile attempt to make sure that we practice Catholic teachings specially their rules on reproductivity (lets not go there).
Heard my father told the story of him having to ask special permission from the priest for him and my mom to get married since he isn't Catholic. The priest was very against it and wouldn't reconsider- until my father saw him coming out of a massage parlor and said hi to the priest. Next day he got the priest's approval.

that was exactly why we got married in vegas - to get married by a rabbi legaly in israel you needed to meet with a rabbi and then my wife would have had to have a ritual bath. we opted for elvis.

the catholic church we wanted to be married in required us to go through a 2 day pre-marital counseling/seminar and there wasn't much of a choice if we want to go through with it. i remember falling asleep during most talks. I do distinctly remember dozing off during a natural breastfeeding advocacy talk was being held- and waking up hearing the speaker, a mother of 2, say that she stopped breastfeeding her kids when they reached 9 years old.Originally Posted by acidicboy

The second (much longer part) was this younger guy going on and on about ********** only for reproduction and all the history of certain words in the English language.Originally Posted by millionaire75
So if you want to have one child you are expected not to ******** after your wife becomes pregnant?

We did not. On the other hand, we dated for 8 years before getting married. I don't think there's much a counselor could have told us that would have registered in any way.Originally Posted by odoreater

Catholics are expected to practice "natural family planning." Hilariously, the couples who led our weekend didn't really know anything about it--they both said they would just take however many children God chose to give them.
More hilariously, several of the other couples did know about it--for one, it involved the guy calling his fiance in the morning (they didn't live in sin) to get her to check her temperature. He recorded it in a log so they could track and predict her cycle, and "plan their family" that way.

Considering your wife is asian I doubt she's Jewish, did you get a religious ceremony of some kind, two? or None at all maybe...Originally Posted by Fuuma
Yes - Jewish ceremony - was very nice, rabbi was very touching and famility and friends were very touched (which is pretty much expected at a wedding). Fuuma, this is America ! You can have a Jewish wedding without a forced (but not really called "forced") conversion.
