I am nineteen years old and I am looking for someone I would like to be my life partner. In my religion (Islam) when you feel this strongly, you may go through the dating process to find a mate. I have been talking to Muslim boys in my area (Kentucky) and they all don't like me because they are more traditional and I am more liberal. I found a man who is an atheist and we have been discussing marriage and have been dating for three years now. Do I just give up hope on finding a Muslim boy or do I stay with my atheiest prospect? We have been having a rocky relationship... honestly part of me wants an arranged marriage.
