The important question is, 1. do you have money? 2. Does the girl or her family also have money? 3. NONE of you have money?

If it's just the first, then her family will accept you. If it's the first and the second then you're good to go. If it's the second only forget it, or if it's the last part just break up immediately, don't stress yourself. Also there is also the last solution but it's shameful, give am belle. But I have seen parents who would rather abort the daughter pregnancy than let her marry the guy, very shameful.

Since you can't get ago of her and if she gives in, you can practise interfaith marriage. A lot of couple are doing it and it is popular in the west where she comes from. I see problem coming from your side because your family might want to ensure that she is of similar faith to them. Have you discussed the possibility of converting her to your religion in other to smoothen and obviate this barrier in the marriage process. My point is premised on the unprecedented fluidity of religious conversions in the west in a way that doesn't happen in other places in Nigeria.

Don't ever pretend that interfaith marriage has no consequences. It is more manageable if it is what both parties bargained for and are willing to make adjustment to accommodate one another. In this way, nobody will complain of being emasculated.

Epistasis:
Marriage is more than infatuations bro.
Be realistic and don't be carried away by the joy of the moment. Marrying a core Muslim won't be easy, the love will fade when challenges arise.
Think it through, all the best!

Trust you are finding ways to cope during this period. Meanwhile, I want you to hear your 2 cents on this please... I really appreciate your time.


I am currently dating a Muslim lady. I have known her for about 5 years now. But we just started dating late last year. Before now, I have asked her out twice but she refused.

I am not a good narrator. In synopsis, I really love her... She has it all... I mean from character to planning, to concern, to caring, hardworking, jovial... I so much love this lady like I can't believe myself loving a lady like this. I see her and I am just happy no matter how angry I am or bothered.

She has shown are strong love for me too as well... Come see how she will be contributing and making plans together.

Now, we are scared of the big hurdle ahead of us. She is from a core Muslim background. I am from a core Christian background. To add to this, She is from the West while I am from Benin. No common grounds in both religion and ethnicity.

My friends are beginning to probe if this relationship can overcome the strong cord of family ties and religion.


I get exhausted just thinking of losing her to start another commitment again. We have asked closed friends in our circles... Some of them gave support others detested our relationship. But we are bracing up to forge ahead.

Is religion that really a stumbling block in relationship? I am open-hearted... I want to be really weigh in on what I am up against.

This is a Whatsapp Chat with concerned friend giving her opinion.

Its unlikely to work due to:
1. Both parents are unlikely to be on the same page.
2. Religious and cultural differences.
3. You both are young and broke.
4. Peer pressure

Best decision - let her go or probably remain friends.

Good news - you are likely to find Someone like or even better than her.

Be wise.

Modified: since you have already decided to stick to her why bring it here? Smh
