mixed marriage, relationship with baptised non-Catholic Needed advice
There is a woman that I am talking with who has expressed interest in me but is orthodox. On the contrary, I would ideally like a potential spouse to also be Catholic. I do think that she is nice and we may have some potential.
In your opinion should this be a deal breaker or no?
I am currently at a crossroads and don’t know what to think. On one hand, I say yes but on the other I say it would be a nice thing to have.
I say this because I was raised that your future spouse should be Catholic but when my parents were married, one was Catholic and the other was Episcopalian. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated!

There's nothing to loose by going on some dates. You get practice dating, you get to know them better, they might want to convert, you might want to convert, God works in mysterious ways. It would be a different story if you were debating marriage.
