Relationship worth saving? Updated
Hello everyone I have been in a relationship with someone for about 3 and a half years. We love each other and plan to get married some day. HOWEVER, when I fist met him I didn't really take my relationship with God seriously and was indeed of the World. However, during this relationship I have changed and have gotten much closer to God. So you can see the problem here...I changed but he didn't. I tried to get him to change too but later learned that you can't MAKE someone want to have a meaningful relationship with God. They have to want it for themselves. I don't want to be with or married to an unbeliever but I don't think it's fair that because I'm the one that changed he has to suffer the consequences (us breaking up ) Also since I really wasn't close to God before, we were of course having sex. However, when I got closer and actually started to have a meaningful relationship with God I decided that I can't continue to disobey Him like that...so we stopped having sex. I consider this huge you guys because most guys would not stand for this especially if you already started having sex. It wasn't something easy either, we almost broke up until he decided that I was more important to him than that was. This is part of why I am so confused about whether I should end this relationship or not because he made that major step for me. Well, you guys sound like some Holy Ghost-filled women so I want your opinions on this matter.
