Ok, I have this problem with my boyfriend that he dosen't have the same feelings in God as I do. I love him deeply and I want this relationship to last for a long time to come. I know what some people reading this and are saying to them selfs "Why dose religion matter if you love somebody so much?". It dose for the future. Im just saying what happends if some day when I do wanna get married and have kids with my boyfriend how would we rase our kids and if there around a father that dosen't see eye to eye about the same religion as I do how will our kids life turn out to be. You people are also saying to your selfs " Your still young! Why are you worrying about this now at this time of your life?". Im really not sure why im thinking about this now but hey! its something to reply on! Im also not saying that I will be with this guy for the rest of my life but I must say its been 7 months already and I still cant get him to go to my church with me. What do I do?
O by the way. I didnt know where to put this at and If it needs to be put so where else then put where it needs to be!

Well, here's the thing.
Both my parents were raised as strict Christians. When I was three, my Dad became atheist after years of parental oppression, and my Mom left the church because she thought it was too close-minded of a religion. My parents are split now, and I live with my atheist father. A year ago, I talked about going to a youth group or sunday services and my Mom kind of laughed at me, so I never told my Dad. I started dating a guy who was atheist, and gave up my religion for the time being. Now that I have left him I realize that I should have stuck to my religion. My mom is okay with it now, and I still haven't told my Dad that I believe in God. My parents didn't take me to church and I am still finding God in my own ways, so if you have children together I'm sure they will too. My biggest point is, I don't think I should have given up religion for my ex. And I don't think you should force your ex to give up/take up anything he doesn't want to, because a person's beliefs(or lack of) get them through life. If you two get along fine, then don't worry about descrepancies like church or children, because everything will work out on its own. wait. you're still dating him. woops. |
