I think that the idea of "love prevails all" is more of a romantic notion than a realistic one. While there are the exceptions, in my experiences and relationships witnessed, when there is a fundamental difference in values - which ultimately dictate action, thought and definitions of right and wrong, there is a clash, a tension. I've seen this a lot with new relationships - when the chemical reactions are running rapid in the beginning, we don't notice these differences or at least, feel invincible to get through them. But then the haze dissipates, and reality sets in, and dealing with the everyday arrives - the "love prevails" part seems to become overruled... Hi Shaemas,

I’ve seen this a lot with new relationships – when the chemical reactions are running rapid in the beginning, we don’t notice these differences or at least, feel invincible to get through them. But then the haze dissipates, and reality sets in, and dealing with the everyday arrives – the “love prevails” part seems to become overruled…

However, the values of the other person stems from religion. Very touchy subject, we try to make it work...but it seems doomed, or at least riddled with confrontation. Not an easy fix, nor an easy answer. Very interesting, I am faced with this situation currently. However, the values of the other person stems from religion.
