Should i break-up with him because...
We hooked about a few weeks ago..he told me he liked me a month b4 that..i said i didn't ...but he still stuck around...one of the reasons i told him i did not was b/c im Mulsim and he's Budist...
after that he still stuck around and i started to develop deep feelings for him...now we're together
but everytime i wake-up i feel like im the worst person alive because i turned my back on Islam...that's not a healthy relationship...should i leave it?

Have you turned your back on your religion? Are you no longer praying to your god? I do not know the practices of Islam. But I don't see how you couldn't have a good relationship with someone of another religion and still have your faith be strong. Talk to this person about how you feel, maybe you can come to a conclusion that will work for both of you...
Communication is the best thing when it comes to relationships.

Being in love doesn't mean you turn your back on your faith completely. Granted in Islam know you aren't technically supposed to be with someone of another faith, but its religion. Man made, not Divine. You can still worship as you did. Tolerance goes along way. Think of yourself as setting an example. You can't and shouldn't change yourself for anybody or anything. Both of your Gods/Idols preach love and tolerance. Why can't you be together? Your religion isn't the same as your faith. There is no reason you can't love your God and your boyfriend at the same time.

If the relationship bothers you, it is wrong. There is strain and pressure, so the relationship can not develop well.
I know I do not have a relationship now, and have not for years. Where I live there are mostly Christians, and I cannot become involved with a Christian. We have too many differences. I could only become interested in a Jew or Muslim, and there are few of those around. So, I prefer to being alone., with just my friends.

You can still have your religion, be faithful to it, and have a boyfriend of a different religion. I know this because my boyfriend and I have different religions. He understands he can never change me and I would never try to change him. If you're worried about how your family will react, that's one thing. But you didn't turn your back on Islam, you opened your heart to love--and that's a beautiful thing. You're HARDLY the worst person in the world for that.

Religion is important in a relationship. Mainly because of how friends & family view it.
When some one dates or marries some one of a different faith their family & friends may feel that you disrespect them by your choices.
Your heart plays a big role in your choice of a mate & this comes first, but choosing some one of a different faith can cause heart ache in those near & dear to you.
Choose what you do wisely.

Who cares about religion? Its not religion that important, love and relationships are much more significant in your life. Otherwise what's the meaning in it? You muslims should learn to realise that religion is not life. You are not the worst person because, even if you turned your back on islam, you didn't forget God. I mean, all gods are same. People just worship in different ways.
So forget your guilty feelings and get on with him, that is if you really like him.

Maybe you should leave the religion part out of your relationships. Believe me it is much better if you are thinking of getting involved with someone of a different religion.

Yes. You are not comfortable in this relationship and you will only hate yourself later. Never stay in a relationship that makes you feel miserable.

no you should stay with it if he makes ou happy and you can see yourself with him for the rest of your life. because thats what dating is sweetheart its how you find the person that you want to spend your life with. religious differences shouldnt play a part in that. if you like him and feel deeply for him then stay with him and persue love and happiness.

Your not turning your back on Islam by loving someone.
If you have to leave anything, leave Islam. And live your life.
