Sallam

Sallam sister.

The problem is that you seem to never have been close to your religion to begin with. I think the reason why your boyfriend didn't convert to ISlam is because you don't seem to be a practicing Muslim yourself. In fact, the reason why you wanted him to convert is because of your Family's acceptance of him. You love him and your family, but your family loves/or seem to love Islam, and you want him to accept what your family wants, not what you want. Get my logic here. I suggest if you are a true Muslim, you would care about Islam more than your family and your boyfriend!

Wa'sallam,

Mustafa
