Suspected this would eventually happen, but it was still disappointing; was dumped because my lack of belief made her uncomfortable. Sigh.
I'm curious.........she didn't know you lacked belief before you started dating? Perhaps , if she did, she mistakenly thought she could change you. Oy vey.
She didn't. We met on a "conventional" dating app. I avoided people who made clear that their faith was important, but was (and still am) otherwise open to meeting nominally religious people. I have now added that I am not religious to my profiles were the app doesn't already allow me to indicate I am atheist.
I know your break up was for a difference of spiritual beliefs, but break ups happen for a million reasons. Chock it up to incompatibility and move on...you'll eventually find someone more compatible.
What really made her "uncomfortable" was that your lack of belief was making her question her beliefs. She couldn't handle that. It was easier for her to break up with you than face the fact that she believes in nonsense. Sorry you were hurt by her immaturity and refusal to face her delusions. I think you're better off., but that's just me.
Definitely better off.
I put in my profile on a dating site I am not religious nor am I interested in the very religious. Once trump was nominated I added no trump fans to my profile. The religious may find a non-believer attractive and may think they are okay with it, in the end there is just too much conflict. Sorry you were dumped. I'm sure you'll find someone on this site who may want to come out to play.
Dude you're in Chicago! There's all kinds of interesting women on this site in your area and I'm sure there are also many different non-believer groups on Meetup were you might meet someone more compatible.
Thanks. Not worried, but it was still an unpleasant experience.
You’re probably better off, relationship-wise.
I don't think I could date anyone who is religious. That makes dating in GA really hard.
Some people feel that the only road to a moral compass is religion; sad but true.
If you want her that bad... convert now. Otherwise... move on.
let your heart be sad, yet keep your head the clear & accepting space nature allows it to be - a life is worth nothing under the weight of pretense.
