is it really hard to fall in love with someone who has a diff. beliefs from you?

Clarah, you answered your own question, and you did it well. When you are of different religions and beliefs you never get to worship together. Your faith in God is everything. If you cannot share that everything with your partner, there is something missing.

this is so true. i have experience this myself. the assumption that 1 day you can convince your partner to your belief/religion is a big mistake. you have to accept him/her as is, you don't plan an agenda of converting him/her. to some it may work, but it seldom happens. the other partner might do it for love and tried to burried the belief system he have embrace since childhood. but in the long run his belief will surface and conflict will happen. although some partner have embrace the new belief wholeheartedly because he/she is TOTALLY convince. this is the most ideal set up. but unless this happen it would be close to impossible for such a relationship with different belief to work.

No it is not hard at all as far as I am concerned. I believe everyone has the right to their own beliefs and if that become an issue to the point that it destroys a relationship then it was not a strong enough love to begin with. Later it would have been something else that would destroy it....Been there done that both my exes were of a different faith and it was never an influence on our relationship. It was something entirely different that caused them to fail.

Sometimes, when we get into a relationship with conflicting beliefs, we become so caught up in it being against all odds, challenging and we somehow think that we can make it work and prove everybody wrong. No matter how much we try to work it out though, the fact remains that there's a difference in beliefs and there will come a time when it denying it just won't cut it anymore. Other times too, at the back of our minds, we think that we will be able to convert the pther parrtner, and when that does not happen, problems start arising.
