Finding a compatible partner in an LDS context can come with its own unique set of challenges. Because Latter-Day Saints (LDS) communities tend to have strong cultural and religious values, it can be difficult to find someone who shares your beliefs and values. Because many of these communities are relatively small, the pool of potential partners may be limited. Since there is often a focus on marriage in LDS contexts, seeking out casual dating opportunities may prove to be more difficult than in other contexts.
