dear danish girl, i had a similar situation. if u love him and he loves u, you can overcome all obstacles. 4 me and my now-husband, it was difficult. but worth it. after 2 years, i still find myself trying 2 prove myself 2 his mum, but then remember that she's a guest in OUR home! he stands by me all the way. u just need to make sure he's going to put YOU first. u don't want a mama's boy! post ur email address and i'll email u privately if u want. canadienne  |

Hi
I have been married to an arabic muslim man for nearly two years now and experienced a similar situation to the one you described. My family didn't want me to marry him and still can't accept him for who he is. Unfortunately the situation makes you realise just how shallow and prejudiced some people are and this sometimes shocks you, especially within your own family. Thank goodness we have a really strong marraige and we just get on with our own lives and ignore others' opinions.
I would love to chat with you sometime as I too have been looking to find someone in a similar situation to myself.
Please feel free to email me.
Louise x

Hi,
I am currently dating an Arab Muslim man and I love him so much. He is very kind and always goes out of his way to make me happy. However, I am concerned about our future. He is a strong Muslim and I am a strong Christian. My family will never accept him and I doubt that his will accept me. I've thought about breaking up with him many times but I can't let go.

At the end of the day you have to consider that , whereas your family is of course important, this man is the person who makes you happy and you could potentially live the rest of your life with. When everyone else has gone, it is the two of you who are left with each other, therefore the two of you who should be happy together.
In my experience, people are so ready to voice their (often unfounded) opinions, but if you split up with this man, they may be happy but YOU will be the one who will probably always regret your decision.
I know it's difficult where religion is concerned and there are no easy answers.
Please try to be a little bit selfish and stick with this man if he makes you happy, I have no regrets whatsoever that I stuck with my husband!
Take care xx please feel free to email me if you want to chat louise_nur@yahoo.co.uk

Hi girls, I discovered this web site just today, I see you wrote all of this a previous year, but the topic still exists, so... I'm at the same situation like West Indian girl, I mean I'm dating with Moroccan Muslim for 2 years, my family don't accept him, his family keep silence just ignore the situation it hurts.. But I live in Ukraine and he wants to marry me and moove back to his motherland Morocco. I agree with this and whant to live there with him too. But my family don't permit me to do this saying if I moove they will hate me and won't consider as a daughter anymore.. They also say that I couldn't live in Morocco normally and so on and on. Please give me an advice how to make it better, to moove with a man whom I love and share a life with him and keep in touch with my family in Ukraine. Thanks for all.

Hi,
i had a bahraini boyfriend for 6 years, we were engaged for 4, he broke off our wedding weeks before TWICE. We broke up 1 1/2 ago and i have never felt such hurt... his mother never aproved i was muslim didnt dress right blah blah but i was ok when i was handing out money 'lending' (but no return) to his family. Please note that our relationship ended 6 weeks ago only. 3 weeks ago he got married to some village girl his mother found. Hurt, not anymore, i have gone beyond that. i am destroyed from the inside and i am alone and lost on this d**n island.
does anyone have advice? How do you get over this? He says he doesnt love her, doesnt know her and that he loves me and is in love with me "i am his best woman"... hard to believe.
