I have a Muslim boyfriend and his parent don’t accept him being with me because I am English
Me and my boyfriend have been together for a year, he has hidden me away from his parent for this whole time and then finally told his dad about me. Not know how his dad will react he received a message from his dad not happy and demanding him back to his country. We both want to be together but his parents are in the way. Shall we both stick together and just hope his dad forgets and forgives or shall we let eachother go?

Hi! Tough situation for sure. My suggestion is to maybe look down the road...are you able and willing to convert?
Yes 100% the only thing is I’m not born into it so if I do anything wrong his dad with think I’m being disrespectful.

What about if it were reversed? Although you may never ever pressure or require someone to convert (if you're religious or a believer), would he for the love he has for you?
His dad would never allow him to do that, his dad is very traditional in the sense that he should have full control.
If you're willing to convert, that should remove any issue the father has, isn't it so? If he's just being stubborn, be patient, and give things time, you can't have all the answers before. He could soften with time. It's also a time to see if your boyfriend sticks with you or gives up. You might have to give lot more for this relationship than you thought, and you can decide if the effort is worth it. Overall, slow down, it'll all be sorted slowly.
Thank you very much, I’m going to give all my effort in saving this relationship. Hopefully everything is okay as I generally cannot live without him.
