Topic: How do you answer this question | |
---|---|
I'm (Insert Religion Here), and though I am willing to date men with
other beliefs I do not want to convert nor will I try to convert others. You say spirituality is one of your "must haves", what do you mean by that? Although I have answered her question, I want to get your opinions on what would be a proper response. Note this is from my eharmony account. |

I should clerify. I want to know what your opinion on an answer for
this question |

that's a very good question.
I used to think having the same religious beliefs was very important, but after some bad relationships, I kind of value having diversity of beliefs. It gives you something non-trivial to argue about and it enables you to learn things from your significant other. Also, I think there are 6 billion different religions on the planet, so it's impossible to find someone who matches you at every point. |

Proper response would be whatever you believe. Anything else would be
lying, what kind of basis is that for starting a relationship. What I would mean, is that you would need to believe in something greater than yourself for there to be a relationship. I wouldn't say that though, I'd let it come out in the process of getting acquainted. It is something that is important to me, I don't think I could reconcile my beliefs to an atheist. They for sure couldn't understand me. I always tell people, I don't care what you believe God is, as long as you don't think you're it! |

One no one should try to convert the other to there beliefs to each
there own if one wants to convert that is differnt. For if you expect that out of someone or if it is one of your must have's then you should make it clear what religion they must be. But should never expect anyone to switch there beliefs unless it is there own choice. Just my thoughts on it. |

well sugar you wrote it. what were you thinking when you wrote it? She
wants to know what your spirituality is. That is what you lead her to believe. What are you worshiping? Do you just believe in a god? What god? Don't write a one sentence. Talk her through it. Give her something to read. Women like a man that can carry on a conversation. Get her involved with you. |

i think she just wants someone who believes in something someone who is
spiritual but doesn't care what faith they are |
|
|

It means that she hates atheists.
She is a very smart woman and she makes it so you can't hide anyting. |

A fair question to be asked, when you have stated spirituality is a
'must have'. I would ask, and also expect to be questioned on it, if I had it clearly in my must haves. And for me, I guess it would be to have me answer, Compassion for all living things, empathy, and above all else RESPECT for all... and for the differences we have. As to my personal beliefs, spirituality is so personal, my god,( I don't have any one figure head) is not your god, my beliefs are not yours, but somewhere in all that there needs to be an acceptance of the differences. Spirituality means something different to everyone, hence sometimes, what appears to be conflict.. |
