my sister married a man from syria. He did not get along well with others. He refused to adapt to life here in the united states. He made her life hell. We wished him dead. He died of a heart attack. We were sorry we wished him dead. The whole thing sucked. I married a woman from korea. Everyone loves her. I love her. Her children love her. She tries to be nice to everyone. I dont think it mattered where they came from. It depended on their soul.

This is two or three questions.
In terms of nationality, if one is a citizen of another country, that can cause some legal issues but normally isn't a big deal
In terms of ancestry, if you are of different ethnic origins, it can cause some social problems with foolish and ignorant people. If you don't have a problem with it, to hell with those who do; raise your kids to respect all of who they are.
In terms of religion, the peoples of the Book are reasonably compatible -- after all, Spain flourished under the Moors long before the return to Catholic rule -- but it can take some flexibility from both of you.
On the up side, if you two love one another, you will have the opportunity to learn a great deal along with someone you love. I wish you all the best in the world.
Peace.

Nationality should not be an issue. But you need to take your time & really get to know each other.
You need to work out whether either of you has any strong beliefs or attitudes which are incompatible & can't be worked through.
But communication and really getting to know each other are important in any relationship even for people of the same nationality. It's this finding out about each other that can lead to a really deep satisfying relationship in which both people grow together.

Depends on who you ask. No, it *shouldn't* be an issue because there's nothing morally wrong with it, and any adult should be free to enter into a relationship with any other consenting adult. However, it sometimes is an issue because it can be hard for people from drastically different backgrounds to find enough in common to sustain a lasting relationship. And of course, the prejudice of friends and family members often raises its ugly head, putting a lot of unnecessary strain on the couple.

First of all, i think you mean a man of Middle East, etc origin. I wish nationality was never an issue in a relationship. Back when my parents, who are mostly Irish, were young, their parents didnt want them going out with Italian-Americans, but were ok with them dating German-Americans or English-Americans . Pretty stupid stuff.

If you get along and love each other, why not get married? It would only be a problem if it was something major, like two conflicting ways of life, or if you didn't speak the same language. My mom was engaged to a guy from Russia once, I don't mean Russian, I mean like off the plane! It worked for them though.

my mother and father are completely different.
My father grew up in Iran and is a Muslim. My mom however grew up in the u.s. territory and is a Catholic, they have been married for 28 years. and are doing great.
nationality is no problem and shouldnt be, unless the couple feels that way.
no one should care what others thinks

No it should not, God loves us all. Hebrews 4:12, For the word of God is alive and exerts power and is sharper than any two-edged sword and pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and of joints and [their] marrow, and [is] able to discern thoughts and intentions of [the] heart.
So he cares about the intentions of the heart. Not about color, you should not care what imperfect people think only what God knows of you.

Yeah if he's a muslim keep well away. His family will never accept you, and he'll ditch you in favour of them once he's had his way with you. It's happened a million times before.. learn from other people's mistakes and don't put yourself through that. He'll lie to you as long as he gets what he wants.

No. "Muslim" is a religion so that's not "nationality". Hispanic is; your question is a little vague because of this.
