rainee:
They are good moderate muslims. Not the hardcore kind or
fundamentalists. I am a free thinker. I'm now not consuming alcohol
or pork. Will miss bacon and pork floss bunbut got chicken and
turkey substitutes.
Dont miss alcohol at all.
I am the first-born. Guess that's why they are so against
it.
But I feel that we are all in this world for less than 100
years. Why so vain to keep the family surname running down the
generations? Its not what you're called but what you did in your
life.
I got 2 bros.
My dad say he will treat my 2nd bro as the eldest if I end up
with this girl. I am 23. I don't need their approval but I can see
relations will be strained in the future over this.
They hated my ex, a chinese girl. But now they say they rather
put up with that girl. How absurd! And this girl is actually nice!
Caring, fun, modest, humble, faithful and respectable. Not the
clubber kind.
That's cos they have a lot at stake. Most parents are not so
open-minded as to allow their son, esp their first son to switch
religion just like that. Plus the religion is one which is very
different from the one they are currently worshipping and will
cause many restrictions in the future. You might not mind the
restrictions, but your parents might.
So in the end it all boils down to how much you think this is
worth it. Is it worth sacrificing the relationship with your family
members to have a relationship with this girl?
