You have probably gotten it from the family, and maybe even your friends. You yourself may have had some inner conflicts regarding your relationship. If you are dating someone of a different religion then we have some dating tips on how you can make it work. Things such as future, children, weddings, holidays have all crossed your mind and while everyone may be against it, don't despair, it can work. You probably got the speech about how complicated relationships are and that dating someone of a different religion only adds conflict to the equation. But the main key with whomever it is you are dating is compromise. No relationship will work with out it and in this situation you may need it more than in most relationships. In a situation where you may never celebrate a different holiday, you may have to compromise and do it know. This could be a fun and exciting learning experience and your dating partner may be eager to learn. This leads us to the understanding aspect. You must be willing to understand your dating partner's culture. You don't have to agree with it, just respect and understand it. Good planning helps too. Think about what you want from the future. You and your dating partner should sit down and talk about what holidays will be celebrated should you get married. If you are Jewish, will your son have a traditional circumcision? If you are Catholic, will there be a communion or baptism for the baby? This takes lots of compromise from both parts. Stay open minded, realize that by teaching your future children two religions, they may choose one in the end. Think about how that makes you feel. Lets not forget having to deal with the families now. This may be tough, but you have to be tougher. Your family cannot dictate what you do in your life. They may be hurt and often may even not speak to you. Take this in to consideration, but if you make your decision to carry on dating this person, do it whole heartedly. If you have even the slightest bit of doubt, you will be waiting for something to go wrong just so you can go back home. It's a tough but workable situation. If you truly want it to work then it will. |
