“He is a Muslim and I am a Christian”
From all the questions I’ve received, I wanted to give answer to the following two questions here on the page so others who may have similar questions may benefit (assuming that my answers are beneficial; I pray that God makes them valuable answers). The questioners have given me permission to address their questions here on the page.
A4P Guest: “I was in love with one of my guy friends in my church. I tried to keep it to myself but when I couldn’t keep it any longer, I told him that I had feeling for him but he said he didn’t have any special feeling for me except seeing me as his sister. I was broken into pieces and also embarrassed but I moved on with my life, keeping him as one of my church friends. That means I see him often. Now after almost a year, he started pursuing me for a relationship saying that he was embarrassed to admit that he loved me last time I approached him. The problem is, I don’t have any feeling for him now. Whenever I remember him, the only thing I have in my heart is pain and hurt. All my friends think that I am crazy to say no to him because he is a dream man for most women in our church. Some people advised me to go with him even if I have this kind of feeling for him right now thinking that I may fall in love with him in the future. What do you think?”
A4P: Hmm! “Fall in love with him in the future?” Sounds very hopeful and optimistic. But I personally won’t tell you to ignore what you feel about him now. And I totally understood you how you felt the first time you went to him. My! It must have felt terrible to be turned down by a man who was supposed to beg you and all that. But hey, it is okay. I am glad you told him what you felt at the time. It is like getting a big burden off of your chest. Now I think he has to look for someone else. And you just pray for that right man, the man who comes to you to tell you that he loves you, to come around. He will. Don’t lose hope.
A4P Guest: “My fiancé and I love each other very much. I used to dream to have a man who loves me the way he does and I do love him dearly. I met him in the most unlikely place. When I went to visit my uncle in the hospital, his mom was sleeping next to my uncle and we met there and the rest is history. It’s been a year now since we have met and we are planning to get married. There is one minor issue in our relationship though. He is a Muslim and I am a Christian. Missy, I dated a couple of Christian men before and none of them loved me the way this man loves me. And the last Christian man I dated treated me like trash. He promised to marry me first and then he cheated on me twice and telling others that I cheated on him and all that. I just don’t want to remember him again. But this man, he is “a God-send” kind of man for me. So, now I was wondering how our different religions can affect our marriage. We both are okay with our religions, I mean, we both are not too serious about our religions and we don’t want to be too fanatic about it. We both believe that the most important thing for a successful marriage is love and we love each other. What do you think?” (Read the rest on the Appeal for Purity Facebook page)
