i have been a closet muslim for a year now (i converted after studying the Quran and Islamic theology...i'm a theology major), so far it's been easy for me to avoid pork, alchohol and to dress modestly. i conduct my daily prayers in the privacy of my room, and i still go to church with my family, so they have never suspected anything.
a few months ago i met a muslim convert like myself at a muslim students association. his family is jewish and his father has accepted his conversion. we've been getting to know each other and our relationship is developing into something really special.
i've been doing well as a closet muslim but i don't think i can stay in the closet any longer, especially if we choose to get married soon...how do i tell my parents? i've been going to church with them because i care about their feelings, but my heart has been firmly set into islam for the past one year?
any converts of any faith, how did u manage to convince your family? btw i'm 23.
