    OH's family are NI Protestant, my Dad is Southern Irish Catholic and mum is Salvation Army but myself and my siblings were all baptised Catholic. I'm a practicing Catholic but OH does not practice. My religion is a big problem to him and his family- more so now I'm practising. He now refuses even to call me his partner- only his girlfriend, trivialising our 11 year relationship and he told me it's all down to my religion!
    I refuse to budge and convert though- my religion is important to me and I'm very close to my dad. I've told him that it's 2017 not 1817 and that if he was that bothered about me and our relationship that my religion shouldn't make a blind bit of difference :mad:
