Hi Sherry - you have some good points where you state the control - this is the muslim culture, and it grows until you become a different person, you should not change for your husband , man wife or whoever, but for yourself, and what you believe in your heart. You are right in saying that through love you want to make things work and to make sacrifices, but also you have to keep your own identity. If it means converting eventually then i am not against that , as long as it is a transition and a journey you take for yourself. There are so many considerations with families involved it it sometimes a hard road to take. One also you cannot turn back from.
