What should I do? (Relationship religion issue)

id say stick with her , treat her normally and wait for her to convert on her own when you move in together.eventually she will convert to satanism because basically it is *real* and with enough experience and knowledge she shouldnt have a problem believe in spiritual satanism on a side note if it is her will to convert to satanism to make you happy so be it ! its the best of both worlds in my opinion.as for me i find it really really hard to make ANY friends with outsiders basically because of the clash of beliefs and differences i have with other people i can maintain living a healthy fun and entertaining life away from those who are without , alone and by myself completely but thats just me if you feel otherwise then do so . i hope i helped!HAIL SATAN
 
To me, it sounds like she'll still making the choice herself albeit for the wrong reasons. Personally I would remind her that the dedication is permanently binding and encourage her to study the JoS website as well as the exposing christianity one so she can be sure she truly wants to do this. If at that time she's still saying she wants to do it to make you happy and not for any other reason than that, I'd explain to her why it's a bad idea to do it for that reason. Because if later on down the road she feels like she was forced to do it, that she didn't have a say in the matter there is a chance that some resentment could be felt and ruin the relationship.
 
I agree with Sims. If she's doing this to "make you happy," not only is it for the wrong reason, it sounds like she's an insecure little girl at heart who doesn't hold herself in high regard.

She's doing it just to "make you happy."

I respect how you recognize this to be her motivation. I also respect how you feel to be inadvertently making her do this. Because you're right. You are.

You're in quite a spot, huh?

She sounds like she's a sweet kid and all that and these kinds of situations are difficult and painful and filled with heartbreak and drama.

I'm guessing you're her "first love?" Poor little thing. Here she is, trying to make her boyfriend happy. And she has no idea what awaits her.

The Dedication is serious business.
 
Thank you all, for your help and advice~  I'll be sure to try all of that.

And, call_me_something_else (I hope you don't mind if I don't), you'd be right. Thankfully this is the only thing she really insists on going with my side on, for better or worse. I believe she's in a "Why not" mind set with this.
 
Definitely encourage her to read the JoS website, and to ask as many questions as she needs to ask you. Maybe even ask her questions about how she is perceiving Satanism. I think it would help her get engaged personally, instead of feeling she should do it to make things easy.
 
Dedication is a serious business. But not all of us came to Satan with the intention of the passion and service that we now experience. Yet that is where dedication brings us. I agree that this young lass probably is insecure and probably doesn't hold herself in high regard but that is a product of an xian upbringing and whilst her dedication may initially be to make you happy, in the long run it will still carry the benefit of what we have all experienced if she sticks with it! HAIL SATAN!
 
i understand your concern mate, i was a christian just only last year, i got overwhelmed with it and I got sucked into it for a while so i wanted to convert others because i feared and cared for their souls, the intention was love, but now that i discovered Satanism and sumerian Enki... i feel the same way about letting others know and hoping they study and find it all out. You mentioned  a good thing where you said 'she will slowly convert after some time'. Just explain to her the history and origin of mankind, a good trusted researcher is Zacharia Sitchin, it was through him where i started to trust the joy of satan website because through his books and lecturers + youtube videos of human origins, that Enki and sumerian texts  translate similar to biblical tales as written on the jos site. So it helped me make a concious decision in deciding to dedicate my soul to satan. It does take time and patience, people need to be sure and consciously awake too for the truth.. Although im new to satanism, i hope i was of some assistance, maybe the more experienced members can suggest other ways... 
 
Hello,
Try to do your best to convince her that is not required to change her religion just for you (even though leaving xianity at least would not seem a  bad idea).
Except that, tell her that by coming to Satanism she will have some responsibilities (meditations) and perhaps psychic attacks coming to her

HAIL FATHER SATAN!
 
Good point. At the very least, make sure she's making an informed decision. This is the least you can do, to mitigate your responsibilities.

Hail Father Satan Forever!
 
I think I'll end up not stopping her, but also go ahead and explain that it is indeed something to take seriously. Again, thank you for all of your input, I didn't expect that so many people would help out!
