this is really silly. it doesn't matter what religion you are, but if you do not agree on the fundamentals, then your relationship is doomed from the start.

i'm marrying a muslim man and am learning about what it means to become a muslim, because i believe that children need guidance from their parents. my future husband and i may not see eye-to-eye an many things, but we share the same goals and principles.

anyone considering having a serious relationship with a man from a different background may be best served to learn as much as they can about your loved ones family and their practices. this will help give you a starting point on learning about him and what talking with him about how he views himself in the future. then you will be more able to make a fair decision.
