My mother & I had a very serious talk about this.
She, a very strong southern Baptist told me straight up that she was very unhappy with my living with my girlfriend, & we should be married.
I told her that might happen but after the first wife I had, my second was going to be known a tested as much as possible. I still don't think it's right, she said. Get used to it ,ignore it or whatever, I sad. But if this one doesn't work out, I'll live with another that I think might have potential, before I EVER marry again.
She finally realized times were different & I had made a decent choice. That woman I had lived in sin with was with her & holding her hand when she passed.
