Well, what all have you tried? I would suggest something along the lines of talking to him about your own beliefs, and that he shuld respect those, as you respect his. That`s probably preaching, but I`d do something like it, if it was me in your situation (guy or girl wouldn`t matter).

So... I'll let you take the floor now. Thanks for letting me speak.

you may think and he may be telling you that he only does it because he loves you, but honey, look at what you wrote: he's trying to change you, 's trying to get you to change your style in clothing and music, he's even trying to get you to change your religion. he's not worth it. now of course this is only my opinion, and i'm not there in that situation with you.

I agree with her, but you should do what you find is best. Maybe that's not a good answer, but it's easier than just letting him change you. Don't let him say what you want to hear. Make him say what must be said.

How cruel!
All I can say is that you should make your choice sooner than a week. It will show him that no matter what, you are serious about your decisions (plus, I am against conforming to a timetable where the person who set it is all about making you conform). I'd leave him if it were me--if he really cared, he wouldn't be trying so hard to turn you into something else.

That isn't right... love is about accepting and cherishing someone for who they are...

But you love him for who he is, so this is will not be something easily solved.

THere are somepeople who just naturally piss me off these are the types he gave you a week and it almost christmas screw him he deserves to rot in his christian hell

I don't know him, but from how you described him, he sounds really controlling and a little bit against people who are a little bit different and who have different beliefs than he does. I you really love him and really want to stay with him and are willing to change to be with him, then do it. No one can stop you. But if you feel that something is wrong with this picture, and think that if he really loved you he would be more open to the way you live your life, then you should do what you want to do. Don't change for somebody you know you're not going to be with for the rest of your life-let alone another month. Just do what makes you happy, and if he pressures you anymore, tell him off, kick him in the balls, and lock him outside without any clothes on. xd

If he's trying to change you, he isn't worth it. People who put their ideas and religion on others are the best to be around with. In my opinion they never seem to care and are incredibly closed-minded. If you want to hope he will change, stay and see. If you want to find better, go for it.

You shouldnt change just for that Guy and you shoukd really tell him that! If hes going to change/mess with your life to where your not comfirtable then you should say that you arent chenging even though you love him

If he loves you, he wouldn't be trying to change you.
