What will you do if someone you love can't love you fully because of your religion?
You are reading this most likely because you have this agony of whether to fight or to just let it go.
Let me say these words to you. This is just an opinion but it might help. :)

You are in a relationship with someone whose religion is different from you. Let us say, He is a catholic while you are a christian born-again.
He valued his religion more than you-- him being a Catholic. He broke up with you or probably treated you badly because he is in doubt.
Your faith being a born-again Christian is what at stake. It is your source of strength. You are at peace with it.
You even did not ask him to give up his faith for you, as it is also his source of strength, he is at peace with it. You respect it.

But still, he gave you this reason to end the relationship.
You are wondering why it has to be a reason. Why you can't be together because of it?
Let me tell you this...
Your individual belief to HIM is what matters.
What matter is the love you both have for God.
What matter is the trying you both do to live a life that pleases Him.
Jesus is cannot be owned by any church or denomination.
As Chad Gibbs said "Christianity is an ancient and diverse faith, and while it’s only human to think our own denomination has it all figured out, we can still learn something by worshiping and conversing with Christians who do things just a little differently."

If only your partner opens his mind, what you can both do is to support each other's faith in Jesus.

May be you are being consumed by sadness right now. Keep this in mind. By the grace of God, things will be better.
"That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthians 12:10
May be you are asking these questions.
Why someone you love made that choice?
May be you can still do something to make that someone stay?

Should you rather move on from someone who cannot love you together with your faith?
Stop the agony. Anyone who chooses religion over you is not your future spouse.
Which brings up a bigger point: let’s stop obsessing about WHY people do things.
