"We have spoken of marriage and plan on it, however marriage is not financially nor logistically possible between now and August" Mr. L, in correspondence.
Korea seems quite adamant that Mr. L and I tie the knot. As though one of my relatives has infiltrated every possible foreign/international school, time and time again we are met with the same "Christian Biblical values" that beseech us to walk the aisle.
Mr. L is currently in an "e-mail-off" with a director of human resources, explaining our unmarried cohabitation rooted in our "conscientious Catholic faith." This was in reply to the director's e-mail informing us that although couples have formed and consequently married in their school faculty, if we are "intimately partnered" already, we may not be a strong fit to their school. An eloquent writer, Mr. L is not having much difficulty drafting up a well articulated, concise rebuttal - though, he toyed with the idea of ending with an "if you were wondering if I know her in the Biblical sense...the answer is yes."
Update: The director's reply is in; a roundabout "no."
Despite our pleading, the lack of jewellery on our fourth fingers bars our entry to yet another school.

why not just NOT tell them about your relationship and then "let it happen naturally" once you're there? you could apply to various schools and then go for the one that accepts the two of you (or are nearby if that's possible?).
