Intercultural Relationships

The dificulties that might appear when dating of marrying someone from a different culture are:

*   The things that they like will be different, that's why they could have discussions when deciding the places to have dates.

*  The most probable thing would be that they will have different opinions about certain topics, which can become a problem in the case that these aren't respected by the other.

*  Their religious beliefs will be different and this could represent a great difficulty.  That's why they should be willing to accept the other's beliefs.

*  Their families probably won't accpet this relationship because they could consider that the both are too different, so they might try to end it.

*  When the relationship has advanced, the both will want to stablish their homes iin their homeland, and during this situation the differences between the both could be reflected.

*  When raising a child, the way of rising him or her could be a serious problem due to disagreements in the religious beliefs and habits that will be taught to their son or daughter.
