My best friend wants me to post this so here it goes....
I am a really good Christian, but my boyfriend doesn't believe in God. I am not comfortable with this. Should I break up with him or would that be mean??

you decide what you want to do. i've seen a lot of relationships survive these kind of problems. but also a lot that are torn because of it...
it's all up to you. i would say that if you're uncomfy with the situation, it won't fix itself in the long run...

Well, just remember that you CAN'T change him...and if you start to hang around him long enough HE will change YOU. If that is okay with you, fine. If not, drop him gently and find a christian guy. Just remember- you can love the dude all you want, but risking your faith in God, or, at least, your attitude about it ISN'T worth a guy. Never, ever, ever is it worth a guy. Take it from here- the choice has to come from you, not someone on the net trying to keep you two together, or trying to break you apart. Decide for yourself based on what God would want.
PS- God bless you. I am also a christian, and this question is proof that someone out there cares about God. You go, girl!! :D

Honestly, things like this are sadly the reason behind so many breakups. It is a shame, but if it bothers you so much then I would say try to find someone with beliefs closer to your own. However, I would not be rude and cast him down for not believing as you. We are all individuals and have the right to choose, so part ways in the kindest way possible. I wish that religion would not tear so many people apart. I really would rather see you accept his beliefs and he accept yours and try to live in harmony, but as I said, if it bothers you that much then it is best to move on.

try to bring your boyfriend along to church when you attend mass, try to introduce God to him, if you are not able, some local church elders/members or pastors can help you.
Don't use religion as a reason for breaking up with your boyfriend, it's not the religion, it's still respecting each others belief in life and learning to get along or resolve the conflicting situation.
You can always pray to God and ask for guidance if you have found the right partner ?!

You can stilll live with these differences as long as he doesnt thrust you to quit your believes. You also shouldnt force him to believe in GOD or go to church along . Trust cant be gained by forcing on him .
As long as he is a good human being your religion beliefs wouldnt get offened by this relationship.
Good Luck . Live & let live .

I would normally say no cause if you care about eachother that should be what matters, however, you are on 2 opposite ends of the spectrum here, you will have problems later on. So have fun now, but seriously think about what kind of future you would have with this guy!

It's really up to you, if your divergent beliefs are interfering with your relationship, then maybe you should break up with him.
If you're just not comfortable because his beliefs are different, but there's really nothing wrong with the guy, then decide first if you feel it's a valid concern, or if you're just being intolerant.

Of course that's not mean. But if you love God like you say you do, he might not be the best thing for you.

If you arent comfortable with it then break up with him. Its not mean just explain to him how you feel. If he doesnt understand then you know it wasnt meant to be anyways

Well it is up to you. I don't believe in god christians do and I have a christian wife and we have very happy marriage.
I don't understand why do you letting third person decide about your life.
