So I’ve decided to take the next step and move in with my non magically inclined boyfriend. Yay! But after thinking over things as I stare at my altar I must admit that I’m a little apprehensive about it.
The reason for the tiny little butterflies that seem to be having some sort of aerial display in mid-section, Well that would due to the fact that although I’m openly pagan my wonderful boyfriend happens to be an ex-Mormon. Needless to say on some fronts we clash. He has also kinda of adopted a “Don’t ask Don’t tell” policy about my heathen ways, and so far it hasn’t really been an issue. But it got me thinking about how actually living with him is going to change how I practice. Am I going to go back into the proverbial broom closet? Is it going to cause problems in our relationship when I display my obviously witchy artifacts? (By the way please note that we have had this talk but application and theory sometimes do not coincide.) He has says that he no problem with my altar, or me wearing pagan influenced jewelry, But I can’t help but wonder if hanging a broom over the door or smudging the house will make him think twice about living with a witch? How do you all handle the loved ones in your life that just don’t get it?
