J.P.: How can I get my fiancee to be happier obeying me since I am the man in the relationship and also convert to?
My fiancee is protestant and I am not that nor catholic but I do believe in the Bible, but not like her. I believe the man should be head of the household which she says she does but then when it comes down to it she says I am too bossy when really I am just being the authority figure as I am supposed to be. I also want her to convert to my beliefs about the Bible. How do I go about this because she has been raised protestant and finds some of my beliefs jewish?

You can’t change other people. You can only change yourself. If that doesn’t sound like something you can handle – by compromise and acceptance – I would suggest that you end your relationship and not seek another. No one wants to be bossed about and manipulated in a relationship.
I wish I could climb through my computer screen and slap you across the head.
Stop making the bible look bad you moron. Godly men love and respect their wives, not dictate their lives. A relationship is about compromise and agreement.
Geez, I can’t stand men
And by the way, your wife is an idiot for sticking by your side.
Answer by tg rdFor a healthy relationship, each of you should learn as much about each others belief system and way of life as you can.
I would highly recommend premarital counseling with a counselor both of you are happy with.
If you cannot find a counselor you both agree on then maybe you should consider ending this relationship and finding someone who is thrilled with you the way you are now and vice versa.
