I dont know why i end up dating many catholics. OH well, My family back home know he is "American" and they dont care as long as we have wedding back home too and he makes hella good money LOL...... Iran doesnt look down on interracial marriages. Yes technically a muslim woman cant marry a muslim man. A muslim man can marry anyone of the "book" like the bible, torah, etc. cuz they may convert or raise their children muslim. well catholics used to be prohibited to marry non catholic, just find a church or priest that would marry you. Some catholics church you pay them they dont care some require you to be baptised and do a little counseling, etc. But that is a bridge we will cross when we get into it. I am not going to convert into Catholicism. but there is no ring, no engagment or anything, so i think its too soon to talk about all this but unfortunately in ethnic cultures we have to make sure there is no clash cuz if there is then you have to cut the person loose cuz family/traditions/religion are more important (for me).
