Re: Would You Choose A Partner On Religion Or On Love? by unfaded(m): 1:39pm On Jun 26, 2009
i've read all the posts.if you marry for love wot happens when u supposedly fall out of love-believe me it happens to all marriages, there would be a time when you wouldn't just feel your spouse.
i think i would love to get married to someone thats keys into my destiny, someone who would stand by me no matter my shortcomings or failures who would know when i say A the next is B.someone who see my potential, and would help bring out the best in me.
that is not to say love is not important, but understanding, communication should rank ahead of love. there are so many failed marriages because people get married at the slightest feel of love and divorce at the slightest of trials/turbulence.
my father is a muslim and my mum a christian, so i know the success ofa marriage isnt love or religion.it simply understanding. when u understand someone it would be easier for u to love them.

Love covereth all.Love is the most important factor in marriage.All others like religion,tribe,physical features are secondary.
Re: Would You Choose A Partner On Religion Or On Love? by Nobody: 9:59pm On Jun 26, 2009
My dear, even Christians marrying Christians have issues. There are Roman catholics, Anglicans, Presbytarians, Seventh Day adventist, Jehovah's witnesses, etc and they still can't join in peace. Nothing is set in stone. I believe you should marry for concrete reasons, which your head and heart can decipher.

Hi Ezinne u sound like an intelligent babe.
Re: Would You Choose A Partner On Religion Or On Love? by amebo22: 11:15pm On Jun 26, 2009
Not just religion self, language,job,features, all this and more would count cos if you plan to live with this person for the rest of you life you just might settle with things you can live with, if God willing we have kids which religion would they follow,today mosque tomorrow church, If I plan on marrying someone with a particular religion its either i follow him or he follows me. We have to settle for one , and not E.g. father ---pentecostal, mother---catholic

and
Children CONFUSED,

It is true that Love covereth all sin, But are there real love without other factors?
Like: Religious, Money etc.

As for me, no matter where thta "LOVE" is coming from, if you're not a christian, I won't marry you,
Simple

Hehe, in that case, I guess I better let you know that I look sooooo cute in your profile pic. grin shocked grin

Back to the topic though. I could date someone that practices a different religion (as long as it's not some far-off weird stuff) for fun, but when it comes time to settle down, I'm sticking to what I know. There are enough challenges already lined up for the "married". It doesn't make sense to add any more.
