Religion VS Relationships

Has anyone lost a partner due to religion? Say, you or your partner got into a new religion and the relationship is ruined cause the other cannot commit to it the same way. Or has anyone rejected/been rejected relationships due to religion?

Yes I agree. I don't know why it has to be in the way of a relationship. I am Christian and there are a lot who preach that a partner must be a fellow Christian too. Either be one or convert to one. I don't see the point? It is like, accepting your partner for who he or she is and vice versa.
