Dear Jzhane,

My fiance and I have been together for over three years. We love each other and are from the same state. We love each other so much but there is a problem preventing us from taking the next step: we belong to two different churches.While, most people see it as no big deal,it is for me. All my life I have been a Catholic church member. My parents, my grand parents too. I am actually very proud of my faith as a committed Catholic. My Fiance belongs to a Pentecostal church. He expects me to stop going to the catholic church and join him in his church after we get married. Truth is,I really dont want that. I know we serve the same God but the things I have learnt from being a catholic,I dont want to let go. I feel the virtues I have from the catholic church made me who I am today. I asked my fiance to allow me continue with me faith after marriage and he said if I insist,maybe it is better we end the relationship. I love this guy,I dont want to loose him. Compromising my stand as a catholic will make me sad for the rest of my life,is love enough reason to let go? Perhaps,my fiance may change his mind after the marriage?Kindly advice me,what should I do? Do you know anyone with similar expereince as mine,how did they address this?

Then u go need to marry ur church oh & become a nun

...so if u choose to continue going to a catholic church, he would end the relationship?
he clearly doesn't love you.

If a Christian can marry a Muslim, putting aside religion differences and remain glued to the marriage why must your case be different while you still Christian's. You both need to seat down and look beyond church differences if you really want to settle down.

Truth is he doesn't truly love you just finding an escape route out of the relationship am a Christian bachelor at the moment personality first before religious difference, if it's a muslim lady i found true love with will certainly settle down with her without asking her to change religion.

You can't eat your cake and have it. Make a choice and stick to it.

People need to stop playing with matters of the heart, don't start what you can't finish, know what you want and go after it seriously so you don't come here with all these annoying tales.
