I thought faith and religion were the same thing! Maybe I'm wrong. I think if faith is important to you, it would make the relationship MUCH better and easier if you shared the same one, especially when it got around to marriage and kids. I'm not saying it can't be done, just that life is hard enough without throwing in extra obstacles. As for the race thing, I don't think that really matters, unless there is a very big cultural difference, then you face the same issues w/faith, traditions, family, children will be affected.

It depends. If your religion is important to you, and your guy is a non-believer, I can't imagine things moving smoothly. I think that the specifics don't matter -- what's important is having things in common with your partner. Being on the same wavelength, having similar beliefs about the world, liking the same activities, hating the same things. Having a similar background/upbringing is also helpful. You can have sexual chemistry, and can get along, but I think, in the long term, having things in common is SOOOOOO important. For instance, I could never **** a guy who thought George Bush was great. I just couldn't respect him. But I could certainly hump a guy of a different race, or whatever, if I thought he was cool...

If there youre Ideal Partner and you know this after being with them for some length of time then it does not matter who they are.
This is of course Utopia , it does happen sometimes. But you have a better chance of happiness if they are the same Race at least as you.

This is really a personal choice anyone can choose to be with anyone. If you want to be with someone of the same race/faith or religion go ahead if you dont you dont have to. and it doesnt mean that if you go with someone thats not the same everything as you they wont be true for you , you have to try it to believe it

I would think so, because relationships are hard enough without piling extra stuff on top. Race aside, religion is important to me, and it was just as important that my husband believe the same things I do. I knew we'd have fights about stuff, but I never wanted religion to be one of them. Hope this helps, good luck.

I dont think Race matters. Everyone is the same. Faith and religion. Not exactly but a christian shouldnt be dating someone who believes in the devil and worships him. Cant see that working out. but a catholic and christian dating. Dont see the problem. As long as its basically the same.

Yes. I'm agnostic, and ideally I'd like to be with someone who feels the same way, so there would be no tension there, no arguments about how to raise kids or anything, but If I fall in love with someone who is at least open minded enough to accept my beliefs then that would be great too.
I don't have an ideal race.

It really depends on you! How religious you are and how much race matters to you... I'm agnostic and found that when i had relationships with religious guys or even just guys with different beliefs, the important thing is that we respect each other's beliefs. As for kids, i've always maintained that if my partner wanted to raise kids with religion, I would support him 100% but he would have to take responsibility for the religious education - going to church / mosque / synagogue..whatever and everything that goes with it.

NO! You shouldn't be of a different faith, race. and religion though. And don't even bother trying to convert yourself to his religion or change him. If you argue too much about the faith and such, or if your families don't get along well, maybe those are signs that you need to evaluate your relationship.

Certainly not. What a boring existence it would be if we all mated up with people who were almost the as us in all areas. Providing you love, trust and can communicate openly with your partner about any subject then what does it matter. And the fact that you may not always agree with your partners opinion makes for great learning experiences and discussions. This is my opinion anyway.
