This. And I love how the duggars have "rules of courtship" when they've raised a porn-addicted child-molesting cheater with some incest thrown in to boot. The audacity of these hateful people.

Where did you see this?

"It wasn’t long before we developed a friendship and two and a half months later I made a trip to visit Ben and Jess and it was then that I met Jinger and the rest of the family. Over the rest of that year I would visit the Seewald’s every so often and have the chance to interact with all of the Duggars and get to know Jinger a bit. However, it was not until months later that I began praying about the possibility of pursuing a relationship with her. I had known she was a godly young woman with outstanding character and a passion for sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ but we had never really interacted on more than a surface level. I remember watching her testimony video that she had made with Ben and thinking, “Wow. This girl is amazing.” I called Ben and Jess and began asking them more questions about her—of course, everything they said only confirmed what I had already been seeing: a humble, meek, modest, intelligent young woman with a burning desire to sacrificially serve the Lord in any way she could."

Wow I would never want someone to say this about me and I wouldn't be attracted to a person described that way. Definitely could be gay/asexually hiding his actual interests.

Yes. There are a lot of ultra right wing conservatives out there.

I said something similar earlier in the thread.
So many "REAL" J names are still available for that family!

Jocelyn
Judith
Joan
Jane
Julia (or variations like Julie, Juliette, Juliana)
Jacqueline

I think the pairing makes perfect sense. She seems like the Duggar to break free and he's more worldly than the other SILs.

And I think she is beautiful. her great personality makes her more attractive too.

And I'm thinking the ministry is BS since it consists of doing YouTube videos with the other son in law Ben who is a wannabe preacher.

Actually he is a minister at Grace Community Church in Laredo, TX.

And his father is a minister, as well. I sort of think this guy is trying to reach the YouTuber crowd.

I do wonder about that. At her age, she missed the boat on young marriage, she isn't actively courting, and isn't pursuing education or a job. Seems like kind of a worthless sort of life.

Actually, she has dodged a bullet. Since she will marry late (but fundie standards), she won't have 12+ kids.
