Dating outside your religion – Male and Female Senior Boomers
By BoomerYearbook.com
A good number of senior boomers still consider it taboo to date outside one’s religious affiliation. This prejudice has been driven to new heights by the ever escalating global religious conflicts.
Borderless love
With the advancement of technology, however, the world has become a global village. Finding that special someone is no longer limited by geographical boundaries. The introduction of Internet dating has made it possible for people from diverse backgrounds to meet and fall in love. Different backgrounds mean different cultures, ethnicity and religion.
If you are a senior boomer in search of love, you might be required to step outside your religious comfort zone and meet people from other religions half way. Dating is a game of give and take. Therefore be prepared to roll with the punches.
Steer clear of the Religious Talk
Religion is a very touchy topic to many people. Questioning or criticizing someone’s religious beliefs will most likely set them off. Most people consider this an affront to their very life foundation. It is advisable therefore to veer off the religious talk during the first couple of dates. Overlooking religion will enable both of you to relax and be comfortable with each other. This way, you will be able to judge the person for who they are and not based on their religion. If you find that you enjoy each other’s company then you can gently introduce the religion topic. The good thing is that as senior boomers, religion is not likely to play a key role in your romance. You don’t have to decide on which religious beliefs your children or other family members have to subscribe to since most of them have already chosen their religious paths.
Compromise
Compromise here involves agreeing on which religious holidays you are going to celebrate and where you are going to celebrate them.
