seeing u grow from buying things off thrift shops to literally being engaged made me realize that everybody's growing up and we just have to suck it up and enjoy it 😭✨

[@brubie535]

So, engaged people don't buy things from the thrift shop? Where is the correlation?

[@Chelsea.Cristina]

​@@brubie535 Not that there necessarily is a correlation, just the fact that Marla started her channel as a young teen girl making fun videos (lots of thrifting ones) with her older sister to now being a blossomed young woman who is getting married. If you've been watching her for many years, you can see the growth and journey she's been on professionally and personally 😊

This is not the vibe. She clearly is. She’s a grown adult and you commenting this is pretty condescending

You're right, she has much of her life ahead of her but if she's sure to spend that time with him - what would she be missing? Your life doesn't end when you're married, I'm sure that life with the right person around you can be even better - not everyone wants to be part of hookup culture or smth :) Anyway it's her decision and she's old enough to make it.

[@Lucymm99]

what are your thoughts on compatibility with living someone you've never lived with before? Genuinely curious because im from CT and lots of people my age will live with significant others for years before getting engaged. How is it different culturally with you guys?

[@maxnotrusso]

Last time I watched Marla she was 17 I think talking about how she hadn’t had her first kiss and now she’s engaged!!!!! How do people in Utah have their fiancés so together at a young age? Like I know so many 25 year old + people who can’t afford to move out even if they have a roommate. So the fact that people can get married young in terms of finances is to far reached for me

[@claire_code101]

she's Mormon, and Mormon people are usually rich, get married young, and have a lot of kids,

i feel like the way you guys do marriage is very similar to the way it is done for muslims and its so refreshing to see !!!!!!!! i love how confident you are in your religous/cultural norms and its refreshing to see a western take of the whole quick marriage process, especially since I dont hear of it often with my non muslim friends lollllllll congrats

[@keda.23]

I encourage everyone to do there due diligence when searching for something spirtual(god etc) i find that most mormsns have never read the bible and dont know anything about jesus and instead worship a false teacher who was not a good man. Jesus is kind, selfless, caring. Its so obvious why so many who leave the morman church and find Jesus

[@claire_code101]

so true, also, Mormonism is considered like a cult
