Secret lives of non-believing spouses
Posted: Mon Feb 02, 2026 2:00 pm
As most of you know, as a non-believer I've kept a few things from my wife. Namely tithing, coffee consumption, correspondence on this website and others. It seems that for our marriage, ignorance is bliss. Scarily, if some of these things come to light, I would be in trouble and would have to explain. I do have good explanations for the ones specifically mentioned and do not believe that they are sinful.
In fact I have been thinking of writing the 1st presidency outlining reasons for repealing the prohibition on coffee and tea. I don't know if this would do any good and may cause this issue to come to light to my wife which I don't think would be good.
Any thoughts or advice?
