Hi,

I myself am not a mother nor married, but I think I am exactly in your daughter's shoes except my boyfriend is a muslim.

he has expected me to change literally everything about me. the way I look, the way i talk, the way i dress myself, who/what kind of people i can hang out with etc.

he completely looks down on my family telling me right to my face that my parents havent taught me anything and that they dont care about me. the other day he went on to say he doesnt wanna have anything to do with my family. he definitely wants to get things done in his way and when he cant, he calls it 'compromising'.

i've stayed with him so far because theres still some good parts in him and that i love him.
or so i thought...

are you sure your daughter's boyfriend is a christian? LOL
theres so many similarities in the way they act.
