Heavily confused about my immature boyfriend
Hey, I am a 24 year old woman. I am in a relationship with a guy of same age from last two years, almost. We were really good friends before that. I liked him a lot. But now that I am in a full on boyfriend girlfriend relationship with him, I came to know a lot about his nature, which turned out to be very different from the image I had in my mind. He is very immature. He should take things lightly at this level but he proposed me for marriage. He demands me to convert into his religion. I can never do that & he knows it. He says he'll leave his family, his culture, his religious practices (FYI- all of this is his life) for he thinks that this relation can survive if we remain at 'one side' only. Of course I am against it, if I am not ready to leave my culture, how can I agree to him leaving his! But he is all melodramatic. He told me his parents will never agree to us. It was a weak moment for me & I consoled him that I'll talk to them & persuade them to agree. I know it is impossible. I know all the practicalities of this. He doesn't want to accept the practicalities. He is in his dreamy world. Says, "we can run away!" Is this a joke! It's my life, for heavens sake. Well, upon that he has a drifting mind, when we talk he drifts away all the time. Sometimes I feel does he know me at all. He says all the time happily that, "you understand me the way no-one else does". I also want the same kind of companion. We discussed this, he said he is way too emotional and sensitive. As when I put my problems in front of him or when I am upset or depressed over some issue, he gets way so much more upset. I have stopped discussing my matters with him, for, he is never there to pacify me, rather I console him to stop crying and the topic just shuts itself out. He is gem of a person actually. If above mentioned problems are solved then, I can't imagine anyone else in my life. What do I do?
