You like a guy, and after several weeks, he became your lover. You love him so much. But after that, you found that both of you are from different religion. Is that will made you think back about your relationship or you continue with it ? Will you put love higher than religion ?

I think that would depend on how you both feel about your faiths. If you both feel very strongly about them and find that you cant be with someone of different beliefs, end it now its pointless. Also, how living with 2 different beliefs and traditions would affect your daily lives. are there some rituals that your partner practices that you cant live with? does it conflict with your own beliefs? im not sure. i don't have a faith and it wouldn't bother me to be with someone who does as long as it doesn't affect me and my daily life.

forgot to add something. Two people i know and are close to share very different religions. they have been together for i don't know something like 13 years. and they have lived together for most of that time. and they r the neatest couple i know, they are a perfect match. so i know its possible to overlook religious beliefs to be with the one you care for:)

I see, no point to continue with the relationship, if both of us can't be sure whether we can live with each other's beliefs. Of course, we have to try adapt to it for a while, before make any decision, right ?

That will depend on how strong each of you feel about your faith. If it is strong, the relationship will end in time. If it isn't, one may convert.

I would not change my religion, for anyone. That being said, I'm in a very happy interfaith marriage at the moment. Yesterday was a religious holiday for me, and my husband took part in my festivities, as I take part in his. =p
If my husband were to someday suddenly become a jerk and insist I change religions for him, then I guess I'd be calling up a divorce lawyer. But I know my husband, and he wouldn't do that.
