Different Religions Options

[*jeanna*]

Alright, do you honestly believe that if you and your partner have different outlooks on religion that you can have a healthy relationship?

I'm an atheist and have dated Christians even a Mormon.

One guy was horrible. He knew my thoughts on it yet still tried to shove his religion in my face whenever he could*.

When I dated the Mormon I tried SO hard to be understanding and accept it. I even went to his church with him 2 times but it was too strange and *so was he. I did date an atheist once and it did last pretty long. With all these different religions popping up and options, think it could last?

[*not saying all religious people do. he was the only one]

i checked and didnt see any other posts about this

I forgot.

I dated a muslim who wanted me to touch the Koran. I'm not scared of the book but the way he went around it freaked me! He was always murmuring something in Arabic. He converted to Islam about a year ago and I swear, he exaggerated the religion thing. He's Brazilian but he learned Arabic in less than a year. He goes to the Mosque (I can't spell it) EVERY Friday, prays at a certain time.

I swear, it was awkward. He was way too religious for me. Although, that's not why it ended.

I hope you realize that is the normal for Muslims, and it should be the normal for Christians. ( Dedication-wise, I mean. )

It is what a normal Muslim (except almost forcing me to touch the Koran) should do. But I don't know of any Muslim who is that dedicated and I have lots of Muslim acquaintances. Hell my class is about 90 % Muslim.
He even talked about me attending the Mosque with him. It was just too much, you know. But it didn't bother me enough to break up with him.

I'd just rather date someone with little or no faith in the future.
