Ya sum parents hope tat both r same religion is better but prob is my mil is catholic while my fil is Buddhist leh which is the same for both dh n me Which is why i cant understand why she keep insisted on converting me to catholic WHEN my fil is Buddhist lor.at first i was worried that my parents in law would ask me to convert also but turns out they don't mind of this different religion issue..
sometime parents hv this thinking that same religion is better in a family coz both can hv the same custom and everything, otherwords if there's no differences then the better.
Yea u rite, religion is personal, can not force one.. afterall we already married to diff religion somehow big tolerance is a must... i must follow his family custom tat i'm not familiar with it too. I wouldn't think tat i do it coz no choice, but instead i do it coz i'm one of this family already tat way i felt more sincere in following their custom.
I go to church alone but my hb always pick me up after church, so thou he dun want to go with me but i know he dun mind i do my own thing and he pay attention on wat i'm doing, thats the most important... and if we go to my home he willing to follow my custom too... so this is the only way to keep us in the same track.
I feel tat in a marriage we need to give and take to a certain extend BUT not to give in to everything coz like this is not called give and take anymore.
For ur dh n u which both of u r willing to give and take to each other so it is rather a gd thing coz in long term wise it plays a important part.
