Hello everyone. My boyfriend and I have been together for 3yrs. He is catholic and im Baptist and when I first met him he would got to church with his family alot and sometimes alone. And then we moved together and he would go to another to a church closer to our home and I continued to go fo mine and occasionally we would accompany each other. That fact that he goes to church often and grew up in church was something that had drawn me closer to him, I felt like he would someday make a great husband and father because of it. But in the last 6 months he hasn't been going to church and he always says "God knows my heart". We had a big falling out about it about a month ago and he promised he would go back to church because he wasn't raised that way and because I felt so strongly about it. But he only went once since then and I had to bribe him. So this morning I made a big deal about it and when I left for church he texted me and told me he was getting dressed. When i came home he made up these lies about the service and everything dealing with church and i almost believed he went, but then I did some investigating and I figured out he didn't go! So finally he admitted it and said im forcing him,and that not going to church doesn't make him a bad person, and evey other excuse in the book. I him that I can't be with a man who sits home on Sundays, and cant give God 2 hrs of their time once a week minimum, and that God has blessed us too much to not worship him and that I also dont wanna raise kids in the future seeing mommy go to church and daddy sitting home on sundays! I pretty much gave him an ultimatum and told him if he dosent go to church he will lose me. And his response was walking away and going to bed. Overall he is a really good man, but I just can't be with a man who doesn't go to Church. I don't know what else to say and what else to do, I really need prayers and suggestions! Please and thanks.
