i dont know what her deal is. she gets twice as much veggies and he gets twice as much meat (food). perfect synergy.

I messed around with an Indian girl at a wedding once. She was very.... aggressive

. I can see how Dlew could fall into this trap.

had some pretty important long term conversations last night. me not being hindu is apparently a big hangup. she's "trying to figure out" how she feels, but i think we all know how this ends.

it will end in 1 of 2 ways. either she gets over it and you stay together, or she can't get over it, and you break up and find someone new. both seem like great options.

Good luck. If it's not completely resolved, run away. What kind of bothers her now will really piss her off in 5 or 10 years.

Gonna win 'em all!

Seems like dlew could also "get over it" and pretend to be a Hindu for the wedding.

Or they have an on-again-off-again relationship for a few years because she thinks she can get over it but each time realizes that she can't.

The same way you'd pretend to be a member of any other religion.

Also, it's hard to tell if her hang up is personal or if she is concerned about what her family would think, based on what we've been told. If the hangup is entirely hers, the faking plan doesn't really work.

GF's Mom is Greek Orthodox, and her Dad is Jewish. Her Mom "converted" to Judaism for the wedding to appease her Dad's family. Both families wore black to the wedding in protest. 2 years later, no one cared. Maybe Hindu families would work kind of like that?

yeah, if you aren't willing to

A) Change your religion

or

B) Piss off your family

to be with someone long-term, you probably shouldn't be with that person long term. The person you choose to spend your life with is more meaningful and will give you more happiness than either religion or family will.

Conversely, if your significant other expects you to either change their religion or piss off their family to be with them, it's a good sign you shouldn't be with that person.

Looks like DLew and his lady friend are 4 for 4, pack it up and move on.

that wasn't presented as one of the options so i'm guessing that it isn't one

the cold reality for all of you saps who think that you've found the love of your life is that there are literally millions of loves of your lives walking the earth

this religion thing doesn't seem like all of that big of a deal so maybe find someone who you're more compatible with

I agree, see my post right above yours.

Break ups are hard, man! I know some of the season vets can just say "pack it up and move on", which is probably the right thing to do, but sometimes it's just not that easy. All those memories and time spent together and then the big void. Woof! T's & P's with ya good buddy.

I will say, I met Ms. wacky like a month after I had fallen pretty hard for a fellow cat and then she had to leave for awhile to Colorado for personal reasons. Sometimes it just works out in the end.

P.S.- That girl called me when she got back from Colorado and I was very confused at that time. I had to tell her I had met someone else. Talk about choosing a path at that time.

Wait, why would the Dad's family protest? They got one converted to their side!!

i get that sometimes things don't work out and that these things happen and that i'll live and etc... given our different backgrounds it was gonna be a pretty longshot anyways. i mean, despite what rusty says, culture/religion/family aren't always small potatoes in a relationship.

Not sure. Guess it was good enough for the wedding to happen, but not for full support? Religious groups, like knees, are weird.

Probably because she wasn't "really" Jewish.

the point is that it seems that the religious issues are bigger than your relationship, not smaller

they rarely are, but they should be, relative to the person you choose to have a relationship. You don't have to live with your family/culture/religion, but you do have to live with your significant other/spouse.

However, it doesn't sound like either of you are willing to compromise so it's definitely best to move on.

I haven't heard much in this thread about match.com from you single cats or eharmony. Seems like it would be a viable route.
