so i know this has happened before, but it's a lot more complicated than i thought it'd be. he's 100% catholic, i'm 100% atheist. we've had the long arguments before about who's right, etc. i mean, i know religion doesn't come in every day life for us, but still sometimes it bothers me when it does. so, how could i overlook this?

But if you really love eachother you have to compromise. I don't mean you have to go and change for him, no wayyy. Just stick to what you believe, but don't tell him he's wrong. Because we all believe in different things, and no one knows who is actally right. So if you guys just both agree to stop fighting and understand that you guys have different religious views it could help a lot. And then you won't even have to worry about it.

Since we both agreed to disagree, the relationship for the most part, was great. We actually did break up partly because of his religion. The only way to overlook it, is to not let it consume your relationship. Don't bring it up and when he does, simply let him know that this isn't a good subject since you two disagree. You two should focus on what you DO have in common and what you two love about eachother. You can have a future together and still have different beliefs. It takes alot of hard work and compromise. If you really like him (or love him) than remember that he's entitled to his beliefs the same way you are. Let it go and enjoy eachothers company. It's only a big deal if you make it one.

TheMaster answered Wednesday March 11 2009, 4:34 pm: I don't like the word religion. I like the thought of truth. Search for truth together, maybe you are both wrong, maybe not. Life is a journey you can only make with someone that you gel with.
Focus on positive and negative, right and wrong, good and evil. These topics will lead the two of you to common facts you can agree on. You may find you are more similar than you think, regardless of the source of knowlege.
Google the following and discuss these topics. Maybe you will both learn something.
1.Creationism
2.Intelegent design theory
3.the problem with Darwinism
4.Proof of God
5.What is wrong with the Roman Catholic Church
This may be a little deep for you. Ask a deep question, sometimes you get a deep answer.
