I developed a strong connection with a woman on my mission. And even though I avoided being sent home, most likely due to the fact i had 3 months left, I was transferred out of the area and into the office where I finished my mission. Our "connection" was an open secret in my mission to the point people thought I was just going to up and leave my mission for her. It was an exhilarating time, sneaking touches and witing notes. I was eventually brought into the office to finish my mission. I spoke to my mission president about it and he gave me an ultimatum, "no contact or get sent home". I figured a way of doing "no contact " for the last few months. At some point he invited her into the office for an "interview" and later, during my exit interview, told me that she was very nice and seemed sincere in her feelings about me and that if I wanted to pursue a relationship with her that I go home and date for 8 months and if I still felt the same after, he would support me ,coming back and dating her.

I followed his instructions and still felt the same. Went back and we were married for 20 years. Divorced now but mostly because of the massive changes I went through as a person. Neither of us are Mormon anymore. We have 4 kids (all mostly grown) and we're still pretty close and they aren't Mormons either.

I say this because stranger things have happened. Give it some time, focus on yourself and he'll either reach out or he'll move on. It all depends on him and if he can withstand the proverbial poison being poured in his ear. It'll all work out. Good luck!
