I'm married now, but I never had a problem with either race or religion. My main concern regarding religion was that my children should be raised in
some faith.
I was a lapsed Catholic when I met my Jewish husband. At one point when we were dating, he made it clear to me that he wasn't concerned with whether his wife was Jewish, as long as his future children were raised Jewish. I was fine with that. Some time later, we got engaged. I decided that if my husband and kids were going to be Jewish, I should find out more about Judaism... and I wound up converting.
I hasten to clarify that I chose Judaism for my own reasons, not for my husband's or anyone else's sake. I'd had a boyfriend who demanded that I convert to his religion or he was dumping me... yep, 30 seconds later he was my
ex-boyfriend.
