Just curious, is everyone here set to marry only Trad Women?

and second question, is it easy or hard to find a spouse in the find a spouse area? (just wondering if they're any success stories here, or "other" stories)

"Only" is such an exclusive word.... 

I'm open to just about any church-going, conservative Catholic woman. 

Aside from that, because there aren't too many Catholic ladies in my area (this wasteland of liturgy, aka Terre Haute), I'm just keeping my eyes peeled, doing my duty (as a student), and praying. 

Would I prefer a traditional Catholic woman?  Certainly.  Am I holding out?  Probably not.

As to success - Matthew_R and goggleeyes are engaged, and they met via "In search of a spouse" here on FE.  It's the only one I know of, however.

Been married for nine years.  Neither my wife nor I were Catholic when we met, but she came into the Church after I converted.  I'm slowly introducting her and myself to more tradition.  So there's always hope even if they aren't Catholic to begin with!

A trad woman would be ideal, yes but as long as she is conservative enough to accept the TLM only and go to the SSPX I'm fine with it. There just aren't enough Catholics around here to be picky about it though. You are lucky to find a good, practicing Catholic period.

Intend to "not" marry someone, or open to marrying a woman who may not be "trad"?

I don't know why anyone would, unless they had an individual who they were courting, would intent to specifically not marry a traditional Catholic woman.

You will save yourself a lot of time if you marry a trad Catholic.  Yeah you can marry a non-trad Catholic and make it work.  I dated a protestant who converted and then we married.  So it can be done, but we went through some hardships because of it.  It takes time and effort.  So try for the trad wife first, but if you can't find one, it doesn't mean you are SOL.

You should also distinguish between a devout Trad Woman and someone who happens to be a Trad Woman due to familial circumstances.  A woman can be naturally virtuous without being Catholic, and a Catholic can be wicked.  Of course, the ideal is the virtuous Trad Woman, but they don't grow on trees.

I would probably date an NO Catholic.  Sad to say, but I haven't even met very many Trad girls.  Ah well.  You always die in the end anyway.
