Hmm we haven't been dating for a long time... like three months but I'm sure he's the one.. And he's willing to sacrifice everything for me, even get baptised in the greek orthodox church. Is this all too good to be true?

It's not too good to be true, but it sounds like you are unsure of how well you two know each other and if you really want to marry this man.

Thats nice. You can take the process slowly though so he has a lot of time to really get used to the religion, what it means and implications. If he is really sure, after time and consideration, then it sounds great.
But do be careful, I married into anoter religion, I didn't convert but living with this man and his family with their odd beliefs was really hard (Christian Science) I didn't know what I was getting into, so I would strongly advise taking your time and really give him a chance to explore the religion himself and take time to decide.
All the best.

In your religion by the time he converts and you go through the preparations needed to get married you will have known each other a much longer time.
I suggest you talk this over with your clergy.

Give this some time. Time will tell if he is really interested in your religion. What's more important to you, a guy you can mold or someone you can share the rest of your life with? Really think about this, you are making a huge decision here.

you can't base the rest of your life on 90 days! Wait 18 months before being "sure". Being willing to sacrifice "everything" after 90 days is a MAJOR RED FLAG. Use caution.

i think you should explain to him that converting to another religion takes more than that. it should not be just for the reason to marry you but because he personally wants to be converted. i hope you know what i mean... because converting to another religion means you are willing to practice what it teaches. you can't just do it and not believe...

I would give it 3 more mo. and then get engaged with the wedding set for 6 mo later. That is a full year to really get to know him and for him to get to really know you

If I were you, I would wait awhile. There's nothing wrong with committing to a person and then setting the wedding date a year in advance......This way you will know him a bit better.........Take care dear!!!!!!!!!!

When you love someone you just know.
I never understood that saying until I met my husband. Its true you'll know the second you meet him.
