Did i do the right things

[pamper_lamb]

Hi,
Recently just break up with my bf. Reason of breaking up,he is a non-believer. i used to be a free thinker but then later tis yr become believer. we sat down and discussed but he refused to convert or compromise in anything, i can't be unfaithful to God.
whenever i talk abt God and jesus, he will make fun of our Heavenly Father, which i just disappointed and just keep mute and pray to God for forgiveness.
well i try to prompt question to him during the discussion, he insisted that he will put idols in our home if one day we get married.So since he is so insisted that i can't compromise to something which i already know is wrong. i initial the break up so that we dun waste each other time since we have been together for 2.5yr
Well did i do the right thing ? I'm so hurt and everynight i will think of him. we are very loving together but we can't overcome our reglious barrer so i choose to give up one side.

Hi PL,

Welcome to the forums and I am sorry for how you're feeling right now.

My only thoughts is that in time G-d will heal how you're feeling. What struck me was how you said that your BF would make fun of your beliefs, something which means a lot to you.

I know that our Heavenly Father will not keep his children in environments where they can get hurt. Perhaps for now - while you are growing in your faith - it is better for you to not be with someone who will not support your growth.

Until then I will pray for you - separating from someone you love can be very hard initially.

Stay strong sister...

G-d bless
LP

Yes i know it is hard for me to get over it.
After all we have been together for two years and God has been telling me that i have to stand firm in my faith as the enemy is laughing at me. So i have to obey God cos He is my first proity. well there is so much emptiness in my heart as i only can ask God to fill the place. i wept when i thinking of the matter again.

Pamper_lamb,

My heart goes out to you. I know you must be hurting right now. But you did the right thing! Keep trusting in God. And in God's time, He will bless you with the perfect guy. Be patient. You're on the right track. Time and prayer will heal you. God will comfort you through this tough time. I know it's easier said than done. When I have felt pain and went down on my knees to God, God has always sent angels, friends, etc. to comfort and love me. So I know that God will take care of you. I hope you surround yourself with all your girlfriends and loved ones who will be emotionally supportive to you. It's tempting to just stay home alone and feel sorry for yourself, but please don't do that to yourself. Let others in your life to help comfort you. That's what friends are for. God will be beside you every step of the way as you begin to heal. Keep your chin up and know in your heart that God loves you and the sunny days will come back around soon. Know that all of us care and are thinking of you.

sry i didn't intro, i'm a chinese so as my ex is. U know chinese do worship idol and make it a vey big event some days in the year. And my ex is not that devoted to what his family is worshipping but he can insisted that if one day we get married he will definately put a idols statue in our house. That really put me off. He purposely wan to shut me and leave me no way to talk, well i guess break up is the best things to do.
Rather one day, devil might use him to snatch me away from God and instead God snatch me first. Haaahaaa

I can't say that I am completely against relationships with an unbeliever. Afterall, at one time *I* was the unbelieving one. I'll say though that it would only cause problems to have one person belittling the beliefs of the other, no matter what religious choices are made. There are also the issues of raising children together, and the spiritual care of those children. If there is going to be such contention during a dating relationship, I would worry about the conflicts that would come up as life changes after marriage. It is just something to consider. I think that you are on the right track with worrying about the mocking and the idols. If you felt convicted strongly that you were in a poor situation, then don't feel bad about taking a stand. You didn't do anything wrong. We all have lines that we draw in the sand, sharing what we can and cannot embrace. It does not reflect poorly on you that he wasn't interested in showing you more respect.
