Cupid’s Advice:
The laws of church and state don’t just apply to the government; they can also often times apply to relationships. Find a happy medium by agreeing to disagree:
1. Focus on what you have in common: Chances are you have something in common with your partner, even if it’s just your love for one another. Keep your focus on what you can agree on.
2. Learn more about your partner’s faith: Take this opportunity to learn more about your partner’s beliefs and why they are important to him or her. Chances are that they will want to learn more about yours in return. You may find more commonalities than differences.
3. Don’t bring it up: Make it clear to your family and friends that when your partner is around, religion isn’t to be a topic of discussion.
