As In any culture, the parents of a girl are open to the man who loves their daughter if he approaches them with his intentions and is sincere in his declaration.

Muslim girls are not allowed to marry non-Muslim men, and often they are not even allowed to date at all. Keep this in mind when you do visit her family, and don't be surprised if they tell you the same things. They may also not like that you will convert to further your relationship with her, as you should only convert if you believe fully that Islam is the truth.
I am not trying to destroy your hopes of a relationship with this girl, I just want you to understand what you may be up against. I truly wish you the best, and I encourage you to study Islam. If it is the right religion for you, you will convert for YOU and not for her.

i agree with Spooky...You can't find out until you've approached them and told them your feelings etc..as always you should be courteous and respectful, etc. but i'd like to tell you that if you want to convert, convert because of the religion and not the girl..i mean, if you convert for the sake of religion you'll mostly have no regrets.

I'm not sure how it is with you dating a Muslim girl. My sister, a protestant born girl, but at the time not a believer, dated a Muslim man. She ended up pregnant but he was not allowed to marry her because she was not muslim. His parents set up an arranged marriage with a girl from Turkey. When she arrived and found out about him having a child, she did not want to marry him and went home, being shamed by family. Anyway, my nephew is welcome at his grandparents home, but not my sister. She never did marry the guy because he did not want to insult his parents.

I am not a muslim fan, but to be fair i would say that you should pluck up the courage to talk to her Father. I know they don't normaly approve of relationships outside their own religion, but her father will be able to tell you of the best cource of action if you are genuine in your feelings towards his daughter...Any father would....

I think I'm not qualified enough to answer your question, but my opinion is to go and ask this question to them.. how can I be a part of you? see how you deal? I want to be one of the family, I think they'll help you.

You just can't convert for her sake initially............you have to be the one who wants to............It sounds like you really like her....be honest and straight up..............good luck.
