Hi guys, I’m 23 a year old guy, I’ve been dating my girlfriend for at least one and a half year and this is the first relationship for both of us. She’s the most perfect girl I’ve found because she’s a great communicator and have always worked out our differences, also very loyal and a whole lotta other qualities. I’ve been on dates with different girls before her, that’s why I think she’s different.
Into 6 months of dating, her parents found out about us and they asked her to break it up or they’ll marry her off. Only reason her parents said this because we have different religions. We didn’t break up and kept dating secretly which is a huge burden as well.
But I go along with it because I think it’s worth the effort.
After that event, we knew in our hearts that we might not have a future but it is getting more clear that we actually might not have any. So my girlfriend said she will choose her family when the time comes even though I explained her family is wrong on every level, that the only reason they don’t like me is my religion. I am about to be done with medical school and preparing for abroad as well she is. I still have a hope that she might change her mind when she’s on her own but she says it’s a lot of stress for her to be dating like this, I also understand her point but I’m not ready to break up.
Any advice would be helpful
TLDR: Girlfriend’s parents are against because of different religion and girlfriend says she is gonna choose her family

  1. If she’s telling you up front that she’ll choose her family’s wishes then yeah, no real future here. In all likelihood when you leave to go work abroad this relationship will somewhat organically end. Good luck.
