I wanted to ask some Christians on this subject, that were not related to me or my girlfriend. Its bugging me this morning.
My girlfriend and me have decided that one day we are going to marry each other. She knows I am going to propose within the next 3 months, but does know when or how. We have gotten to know each other very well and are real close with one another.
She attends an Assembly of God church and I am a member of a Baptist church. We had our first disagreement a couple of nights ago regarding an issue with movies. We settled it calmly and within a few minutes.
But there have been some things I want to discuss with her regarding our morals and when we have a family how I'd like to raise our children, because we both have agreed we want children one day.
Lately, it seems her attituide towards things is what "she" wants more than just talking to me about it. Like i suggested naming our kid "Jackson" and she was like "we are NOT naming our kid that." and "we will NOT" or "I WILL" type of attituide which really really annoys me.
Another issue is me listening to country music. Now dont get me wrong, there are some songs on country radio I do not like or won't listen to, that talks about adultery and drinking, but I have grew up on country music and music in general in my life and I love listening to it. There are some good clean country songs out there that I love to listen to, but she will not listen to it at all and made a comment the other night she doesnt know why I listen to it because its not Christian.
I dont want to cause problems, nor do I wanna seem like someone who likes to argue, but I feel there are some things we should talk about before we decide to get engaged and married. Do you think by me setting down talking to her about these subjects calmly will effect our relationship in a bad way?
I just dont want her to think I am thriving on disagreements or trying to create drama, but I feel there are some issues that need to be talked about. We are a lot alike and for the most part, agree 95% on things in life such as beliefs and about our Lord Jesus Christ.
Thanks in advance for those who respond and may God bless you!!
