let me be completely honest and get this off my chest. my parents would not approve of me dating someone outside my religion so that's one concern. How would they find out? easy, a relative/friend will see me with her and report to my parents. See, I am very analytical and think about all the things that could go wrong.
How old are you and what religion are we talking about? As long as they dont' behead you for talking to girls of different religions, who gives a shit.
I'm an open, out of the closet atheist in Louisiana. I was scared shirtless to be upfront to my family and friends about it. At times I honestly thought I was going to be disowned (I come from a poor family anyway, so it's not like I'm giving up a huge inheritance or anything) and asked to never speak to them again. In reality it was tense for a week or two and then everyone said fuck it, and everything's just like normal except I get a few religion questions from people every now and then.
