text: what's your opinion on this relationship? i'm african and i have been dating an indian guy who is 34yrs for 2 months now. he treats me so nice on all the dates we've had. now he has started talking of marraige. i feel that being of a different race will not go down too well with his people so i'm planning to break up with him this weekend. this saddens me so much but what else can i do. what's your opinion? also he is muslim but insists he isn't a religious person. sometimes i wish we had never met he always treats you nice?  and now he's talking of marriage?  just because the family doesn't like you (why should they, in this day and age.  and if they do, that doesn't have anything to do with him) doesn't mean you should break up!  if he asks you to marry him, and then the family expresses a dislike for you, deal with it then.  if he's willing to look past race, so should you be.  don't worry about the family.  if they're reasonable, they will get past their prejudice, and if they aren't, you have him.  he will want you whether his family does or not.  if there is another reason you want to break up with him, think about that.  why do you really want to break up with him?  and if it is because you're afraid the family won't like you, tell him!  ask if they won't, and ask how that will affect your and his relationship.  if he feels its a problem, then marriage obviously isn't an option.  but if it isn't, then you can work things out with the family. love will find a way! give him a chance.   if you disagree with his religion, get it out in the open.  if he insists he isnt religious, you need to think about how it will affect your relationship.  if you can't deal with that influence in your life, you need to seriously reconsider. "sometimes i wish we had never met." why?  what is it about him?  is it his race, religion?  you say he is nice... but... it really does seem like you're ready to break up, but these seem to be rather physical reasons.  not very deep.  if you worry about these kinds of things now, are you really ready for marriage anyway? these things you have to discuss with him.  look deeper for the reasons you wish you'd never met.  i'll bet it's something more than your race or his family or religion. good luck!
