Both of you (your and your b/f) have different priorities.
You want personal happiness. You like being with him. Although you believe in one God, still you don't care about religions or different ways of life. You are the best
On the other hand, he can leave you but not his religion (must be some false version of religion, where he believes his is only true religion). He knows that you love him and ultimately will agree to his terms. Also if he is religious, then you must understand his mindset that you are also a trophy for a muslim guy(mostly Pakistani or Bangladeshi, due to their recent historical inferiority complex) to bring another non-muslim to folds (same can be said about all the religions but muslims are best). I still remember my Pakistani colleague parading his new Chinese wife with Hijab in office.
This is human nature. Punjabi and other Asians would be more decent with their white wives, than if they have Punjabi or Asian wives.
There are more chances that Black man would have Asian wife than vice versa. There are very slim chances that Punajbi sikh or hindus have Pakistani wives, but even if they have, they would try to hide it.
On the other hand, Pakistanis will proudly introduce sikh/hindu/white/other new wife to other Muslims.
This issue is not about God or your journey towards it.
Thank you.
This is main reason that i dont believe in the religious side of life.... it causes too much heartbreak and pain - on the other hand i know it makes people happy, i appreciate that.
im just trying to find a way round it. his parents will never accept me and i get so miserable wen i think about it. i love him and want to be happy with him. but i say to him that his family are the most important thing, girlfriends just come and go but family is there forever.
im not backing down on my decision to be who i am and to stay as who i am.
wrong or right, who knows but i feel purer in my heart being honest about my views instead of saying im a Sikh but doing things i shouldnt do which disrespect the religion....:hmm:
