No way. I respect the religion and beliefs of another but I would not change to be with anyone. If it is meant to be somehow it would work out. Its all about accepting each other they way you are and not try to change each other

Within Christianity I could be rather accepting. I have learned to open my mind a little more. However, I could not change religions.

I would be willing to accept a religion...

perhaps even the religion of my partner...

find out about it and see if it is for me...

for now I don't believe in anything...

In my opinion, if you are in a truly loving & healthy relationship, it should be unconditional.

Not me. It is a personal choice. Change her to suit my needs would be illogical. It is because she is the way that she is that attracts me to her. To screw with that would be to screw with the attraction. I couldn't accept changing to prove myself worthy to my ex because of my rebellious nature. If opposites attract then could you imagine how polar opposites could attract? Think of it in terms of a magnet. Two but separate but try to pull them apart.wave

No and I wouldn't expect anyone to do that for me.
I'd learn about their religion or beliefs though.

If I'm convinced...I'll change beliefs.

I'm not going to love someone unless I respect their opinion.

If someone I love and respected told me the sky was red, I would have to disagree though.

I guess the answer is no and the question is impossible.......perhaps the question is : Would you FAKE beliefs?

Answer is STILL NO.

Seems to me that all you'd really be doing in that case is pretending to believe in something for ulterior motives and gain.

It would be the epitome of hypocrisy.

Now, if you’re partner actually ‘convinced’ you that their religion is true that would be a different matter. But that’s not what you proposed. You proposed changing your religion because it’s the ‘only’ way to be with the person you claim to love.

But I say that if they can’t love you for your own beliefs then it’s a one-sided love anyway. You’re better off taking a hike.
