Marrying Another Religion?

Love hath no boundaries!
Unless hes a Jew and you're a Christian, or she's a Muslim and you're a Buddhist... Well you get my drift?

Religion is usually a hot topic when brought up in any conversation, so imagine in the dating game. Usually one goes for someone who mirrors their religious beliefs. But what happens when you unexpectedly fall for someone who has a completely different belief system than you?! All though challenging, it is 100 percent possible. Both parties must be willing to come to a mutual understanding and first know that they will face many obstacles. Obstacles like who's doing the converting, and most importantly a couples' family members. Often times parents envision a certain mate for their child especially in religious and traditional communities and if they stray away from that path their family pictured for them it may cause a rift in the relationship. Having in-laws that aren't to fond of you can cause problems in most relationships. Before deciding to take the plunge and get serious with a significant other who has a different religious background both parties must have the "sit down". Sit down and have a serious conversation about where the relationship is going, and if its worth continuing. If you decide that you two are soul mates and can't eat, can't sleep without the other then go for it. Just make sure you guys are in it together because it may not be easy!
But have no fear that four letter word is here, (Love!) I'm a strong believer in the saying "Love conquers all." And once you find your mate nothing else matters. Believe in each other, be there for each other and everything will be ok!

What is a relationship?!


When you think about a relationship , you think about a bond formed between two people, you think about two people making a commitment to be monogamous. A commitment to one another, a commitment to strive, together. Often people tend to get confused as to what the ultimate goal of this bond is supposed to be. People tend to get caught up in the "game". When a relationship is formed the "game" initiates, slowly growing fond of one another but uncertain of where it may lead. The ultimate goal of a relationship is what ? A marriage ? A family? A life partner? YES! Exactly! So in life when all the games stop in this game we play that is this "dating relationship" we "win" our mate? Yes? No? Hopefully.
