I am a born again believer and I have been married to a muslim man for 4 1/2 yrs. I was 17 and he was 25 when we met at work. I was very interested in him because he seemed so nice and he was always flirting with me & making me laugh. We started dating in Sept and a few months later we started talking about marriage. He proposed to me and gave me this story about how he would have to leave the country if I didn't marry him. I was very in love and very naive. Against everyones better judgement we got married in March. Only 6 months after dating. We have had our fair share of struggles and I almost left him once. We do love each other very much, but there are certain things that we will never agree on while he is a Muslim. For this reason we have not had any children together. My family and I pray for him constantly. I married him at my church & I made a vow to him and to God, I ask for strength everyday to keep this vow. I love him, but this marriage is so hard. Marriage to a Muslim man is 10x harder than marriage to a believer. Please, if you are thinking about marrying a Muslim man, DON'T!!! I know you love him, but honestly it is a struggle and you will find better... YOU DESERVE BETTER!!
