Is she placed into a "bad wife" mansion? Put into another heavenly harem, or just left standing at the veil waiting for all eternity?

Was never really answered for me. I think that if a husband doesn't, then the wife either becomes a servant or wife for some other man.
Not a big fan of the belief. I think it's sick, sick, sick. One more way for a man to subjugate a woman... "honey, I love you, but if I don't call your name in the afterlife and pull you through the heavenly veil, then we won't be together..." So what's the unspoken assumption? It doesn't even have to be vocalized.... =(

You have misstated Mormon belief. We believe that marriage is essential for the spiritual progress of both men and women. However, those men and women who do not have the opportunity to marry in this life (for whatever reason) can certainly still get into heaven. In 1996, Elder Dallin H. Oaks, one of the worldwide leaders of the Mormon Church, stated: "Through the merciful plan of our Father in Heaven, persons who desire to do what is right but through no fault of their own are unable to have an eternal marriage in mortal life will have an opportunity to qualify for eternal life in a period following mortality, if they keep the commandments of God and are true to their baptismal and other covenants." So no, women do not need to marry in this life for entrance into heaven. Please get your facts straight.

Nothing in the bible about this situation.
It just doesn't work that way in real life.
Read your bible..........
Each individual is responsible to Jesus before God, but it is God / Jehovah who directs who goes to heaven to work with Jesus. Those of the 144,000 chosen Know......who they are.
The bible states what they will do, there.
