hey sarah, must say i love your advice, i want to ask this girl out but she's a liberal democrat and i'm conservative republican all the way, she doesn't go to church and i do, i don't know what my parents will do if they find out, or even what her parents will do because my parents are very firm and trying to change their minds is like talking to a brick wall... what do i do?

I think that if you really like her, your opinions shouldn't really stop you from going out. There are plenty of other things to talk about than politics, and I am a democrat and have a lot of conservative republicans as friends.. I'm kind of forced to considering I live in a red state.. Your parents should know that people can have peace despite their differences and that they should be accepting of whomever you decide to go out with, unless they could get you into trouble of course (drugs, sex.. etc.). So my advice is simply this
-ask her out
-don't hide it from your parents, simply tell them that you two can get along despite things and that they should be able to too.
-see how things go from there, because even though people can be accepting of eachother, sometimes it is hard to relate to someone or get along with someone well if they are VERY different from you. but as an saying goes "opposites attract" all depends on the person..
You'll never know if you don't try. good luck. :) and thanks for the nice comment. If you need any further advice I'm always around.
~Sarah
