He Is A Christian, I Like Him But I'm Not Christian. Advice Needed by Loots: 10:30pm On Jan 07, 2016
There is a guy who i have been with for a long period of time and we have been dating for about 2 years, and i consider him my prince charming. We have been friends since childhood and we have always liked each other. He is a very good person and the kind i desire for a husband but however, he is a Christian and I am not Christian. My parents wont have me marry a Christian.

When we started, I told him about our religious differences, he said he didn't care and neither do I but my parents do. His parents on the other hand, are okay with it but mine, No! And ever since I've been with him, I shut the door against other men and never gave any other man the chance or attention.

I don't know what to do about this as my friends are saying I should ignore my parents and just go ahead with marriage in a simple way and I have been considering it because he has everything i want in a man and also, he has been around since we were in our cradle so i know him in and out. He is already excited and making arrangements as he proposed to me, and I said yes only for my mother to say "No, I won't endorse it". It would break him if i suddenly turn everything the other way around and say "I changed my mind" so i don't know how to go about this. He also has a heart condition so breaking such news might hurt him and I am hoping there is a way to workaround this.

please mature advice.
Thanks

you shouldnt have allowed the relationship grow that old. That was the mistake on your part. Never start a war you cant win, they say. Thread carefully! Ma-a-sallam.

@Above.. smh

@Op, all i can say is: If you really love him like that and mum says No, GO FOR IT! Women without Mother and Father get married. Be with the man you love. Your mum would soon leave this world(No Offense) and it would be you alone so don't let her determine your destiny as you have a long life ahead of you. You are your own person. She has done her job as "Mum" to bring you up to the woman that you are today and thats it.. She cannot determine your love.

If you love him, marry him like that.. In Olamide's Voice:

The Relationship for the past 2 years was a hit
Back 2 Back
From everything.. to everything...
Yet, mummy says NO!
Marriage Without Mummy ti Take over..
.....(You know the rest) lol

I don't know why some theist will think they know the only way to God. My God is too big for a path to lead to him. Having said that I blame you for giving away 2yrs of ya life to something you don't want to do. Your parents can't stop you if you truly willing to marry him

Better get people to apply to your parent because you will need their consent.

If you don't marry the guy, my dear you have miss you beloved husband. According to your story, I strongly believe this you soul mate.

Both of you deserve to be happy. I have seen the same happen to some people...they married someone else and all are now divorced because they were happy with who they eventually married to.

Pray, get people to apply to your parent and enjoy your life.

dear OP, your situation is a very delicate one. Firstly, it's your life and that's what matter. So do your best to be happy. If you choose to obey your mum to let go and problem starts with your new found love (God forbid) she won't be there for ever to solve them for you. She'll only tell you to keep coping with it. so...if you love and trust him to be ever loving and caring like now, Its a YES from me. Your mum will understand.

Dear OP,

Are you a Muslim lady? If yes, I would advice to never ever leave your religion for anything in this world because its not worth it.

Please beware of some of the people you call friends, why would your so called friends be encouraging you to disobey your parents.
Re: He Is A Christian, I Like Him But I'm Not Christian. Advice Needed by Loots: 12:11am On Jan 08, 2016
