Religon in specifics is all just a big misunderstanding from the past. If you love your partner and they are a good person you shouldn't break up with them.

That is the worst reason to do anything, who cares who believes or doesn't. You are self absorbed if that bothers you

It depends what you believe in. If you believe he/she will go to hell for not believing, then you should dedicate our life to converting them.

True love is unique. It conquers everything. Therefore, nothing is too hard with love. When you love someone, it doesn't matter whoever he/she is. However, you can brought him/her into the righteous teaching as you want him/her to experience the greatness of GOD and have eternal life.

Region is more serious a thing that it may seem at first especially during the initial stage of a relationship when the love seems to conquer all, but what happens 5 years down the road. The Bible also says do not be equally yorked with non believers.....

Your faith beliefs stem from the very core of what you are. This could create a gap in your relationship with a non believer. As the bible explains, you would be unevenly yoked. This could be potentially create a serious problem; some couples work it out, others do not.

First, I must question what kind of relationship is this? If it is a marriage, then God clearly defines that the only reason for divorce is adultery. (Matthew Ch.19) 1 Corinthians 7:13 (New King James Version) states, "And a woman who has a husband who does not believe, if he is willing to live with her, let her not divorce him." To me, this gets a little confusing because the way I read that implies that if he wants to leave then it is ok to divorce him which is not at all what I believe. I'm sure that if you have done any amount of bible study in the past you know how contridicting some passages can be. Guess my advice to you would be to pray intently on it and ask God to guide your heart and mind on the actions you should take. I know the bible also warns us of things that may be placed in our paths for the purpose of distracting us from the face of God thus pulling us away from him spiritually. Find yourself a good educated preacher, pastor, or whatever your denomination labels your teacher as that you trust and respect and ask him for guidance as well. Study, Study, Study and never rely on people's opinions. I think it is ok to find direction in other's opinions but only to the place to find the answer your heart desires and not the actual answer.

I believe the 2 most important decisions a person can make during their life time is who they are going to marry and the other one which is more important than the first, is when they decide to give their heart to the Lord Jesus Christ and accept His as their Lord and Savior. Because of this, I believe your question deserves only what the Lord has already said about marriage in His Word and because you are His child, a Christian.
The world can be very cold and distant to your spiritual needs. You'll never find the correct answer there. Their are many people waiting in line to give their opinions and ideas as to what you should do. But if you are a child of God, then your answer can only come from the Scriptures. Your question was dealt with by Moses when they were in the wilderness. The Lord Jesus also dealt with it during His ministry on earth. The Apostle Paul dealt with the subject in his first letter to the Corinthians in Chapter 7. It is a very important subject because the 2 decisions should be for life.
I hope you have a little time on your hands because I feel inspired to give you only what the Lord has said. It has been 2 thousand years since the writings of the Apostle Paul. If the Lord gave Moses the answer and wisdom to deal with the subject and the Lord Jesus was the answer and explained it. If He gave the Apostle Paul the wisdom and inspiration needed to settle the matter during his ministry, do you think that the Lord would forget His children in the day that we are living. Since the time is just like it was then and maybe even worse.
Today, marriage is highy unpopular. And it is no longer sacred to many that are married. So many and too many are unfaithful to their marriage vows. People go into marriage with the wrong attitude; they are already thinking about what to do in case they get a divorce. The Lord created the institution of marriage in the Garden of Eden. The marriage between Adam and Eve typed the marriage between the Lord Jesus and His bride; it is suppose to be forever. It is easy to divorce a husband or a wife, but if you divorce the Lord their is only one place you will end up in. The opposite of life is death. To marry Him is to receive Life Eternal; to reject Him is to reject Life.
The person that directed you to the Scriptures is definitely on the right track. They should have left you with consulting the Word of God, your Pastor and only those that are called to handle the Word of God. With all due respect to the person that referred you to the Word of God and I hope they understand, but education is definitely not a qualification of someone that understands the Scripture. Nor do any Scripture contradict another. The Scriptures were writen by scribes that wrote the Words that were given to the Lords Prophets while under inspiration. They were moved by the Holy Ghost "2nd Peter 1:19-21. You can study until you are blue in the face and still not have the answer. The Lord Jesus complimented Nicodemus as being a "master of Israel" (John 3:10) and he didn't understand what the Lord meant by being born again. He was a Priest. He knew the Torah (Mosaic Law) inside out. He had to know it or he could not minister in the Tabernacle. The Apostle Paul was the closest to being "educated" but he said he had to FORGET ALL that he knew to KNOW CHRIST. He was a student of the great renown Gramael. Moses was concerned about his speech; the Lord Jesus gave the "Keys to the Kingdom" to Peter, an "uneducated" fisherman that couldn't even sign his own name. So don't look for an educated preacher; they are usually puffed up by their education and degrees. You just need to pray ernestly to the Lord. It is His oblagation to lead you to the Truth.
The Lord has not forsake His children today, nor has He ever. The criteria is "perfect love". If you were a Christian when you got married and the marriage ceremony was conducted by a Godly minister which should have been your Pastor. He should have first counseled you and your fiance prior to marrying you. If this was the case then you should not be surprise if serious problems arise in your marriage. The Lord has warned His children many times of what would and could happen when a believing husband marries an unbelieving wife and a believing wife marries an unbelieving husband.
All is not lost. You did not say if you are the wife or husband and it really doesn't matter but their are serious things to be considered if you are the wife as opposed to the husband. The very first thing you must answer from your heart and know it to be the truth. 1. Do you love your husband or wife? 2. Does your husband or wife love you? 3. Is your husband or wife involved in any criminal activity? 4. Is your husband or wife abusive, mentally or physically to your or your loved ones?
If the answer to the 1 & 2 is yes, and the answer to 3 is no and the answer to number 4 is no then their is no Scritual reason for you to leave. As it states specifically in 1st Corithians 7: 10-17, if you are PLEASED to continue with your spouse and your spouse with you then remain together. Your life, being concerated to the Lord, will santify (cleanse) your unbelieving spouse.
If one of you is being abusive to the other, then you are not oblilgated to remain in the marriage. Fornication (committing adultry) is the only reason that the Lord has stipulated as the reason for getting a divorce. If your husband is abusive then you may separate from him without marrying again as long as he is still married, according to the Scripture in verse 11. It may seem unfair, but the woman types the "Bride of Christ" and the man types the Law, Christ. He can put his wife away in divorcement and marry again but the wife can't put him away and remarry. The wife can leave her husband because he committed adultry but she must not remarry until he dies. In referring to 1st Cor. 11:3 and Ephesians 5:23, the husband is the "head of the wife" because he types "Christ" being the Head of the "church" and it would be good to read on down to the 12th verse.
The truth of "Marriage and Divorce" was answered thoroughly in our day and time by God's messenger. If you would like to more on this subject you may email me at igotmail@gci.net and I'd be more than happy to send you the "rest of the story". Let me leave you with these words. As it states in John 10:27, if you are a child of God you will recognize God's voice when He speaks and will obey His Words only. According to John 8:32, the "Truth" concerning any matter will set you free from the "lie and false teaching" of that subject. According to John 16:13, the "Spirit of Truth", which is the Holy Spirit, is obligated to lead all His dear children to the truth and to give them understanding of His "Devinely-revealed" Word. And according to Romans 10:17, you can only receive FAITH from "hearing" the Word of God, not by reading it though you receive a blessing just from reading it according to Revelations 1:3. But then how will you hear it if their is no minister to preach it and how can their be a minister if one has not been sent (Romans 10:13-16).
Let me leave you with these Words from the Scriptures...according to Isiah 8:20 and Galatians 1:8-9 there is no "Light" in any other except that which has already been given to God's prophets. May the Lord bless and keep you.
