Stumped About Religion
Family & Caregivers / by greenWalker8543

...See more Stumped About Religion So my husband and I are newly married but have been dating for 5 years, engaged for 2, friends for 10. We are an interfaith marriage meaning he is Jewish and I am Christian. Normally it doesn’t cause too much tension but today a fight over an Aldi salad that accidentally added bacon to its ingredients that I served for lunch caused a problem. My husband keeps a kosher kitchen at home but at the office I eat non kosher frozen meals. He chewed me out over the salad mistake and wanted me to run it separately over dishes and I didn’t have the energy to do so. The fight over me not wanting to clean the bowl led to my father in law over text saying to just wash it. It wasn’t the work of cleaning it that made me mad but the attitude of the must be fixed when I’m not Jewish thing. The fight turned into what our future kids religion will be and escalated into me getting angry about all the demands on me to change my beliefs just to accommodate him. We did apologize to each other but I’m still a bit hurt that he insists that the household must be Jewish if we have kids though he will let me keep my religion. I can read Hebrew and fit in around Jewish people but find my mother in law is particularly mean about my religion and my past relationships due to some trauma she has from her divorce. We are both disabled and I’ve been bullied a lot for being myself. Do I have to go along with what my husband says even though I don’t agree? He normally is a great guy and is usually supportive but a salad plate almost had us at WW3.

...See more Lately my anxiety has been turning into fights with my husband over the future and it isn’t fun. We’ve had two blow outs over a mistake I made yesterday so I feel very bad about that. The mistake wasn’t that bad but the fight about the future meaning kids is what made it hard. We are an interfaith couple. I’m supposed to get promoted at work soon but nervous about learning phones lately. Been doing okay when I do them. Can anyone else relate?

...See more I’m learning phones at work and anxious about mistakes. How do I calm down enough to process on the phone? I’m a perfectionist.
