I was raised in a very conservative christian church, and on several occasions, I was asked to write a letter to my future spouse, generally describing my commitment to "stay pure" till marriage. Even as a sappy fifteen year old girl, I thought the idea was silly. I did know a girl who wrote to her future husband once a week. Also, I have known several girls who, during some late night, "felt called" to pray for their future spouse at that exact moment. These girls then hope that when they eventually meet the person they are going to marry, that night was something quite traumatic, like a car accident or something. I'm pretty sure that concern for future spouse was continually put before the kids at my church to remind us not to have sex.
BUT I do think the idea is kind of neat. I'm getting married in two months, and it's kind of funny to find evidence of my fiance existing before I met him.
