I was a hindu girl and married a christian and that too believer pentecostal. We had courtship of 6 years before marrying and at the time of marriage, despite knowing that it is a sin he agreed to hindu marriage for the sake of my parents respect. Then after marriage I converted on my own will and experience of christianity but now my parents especially my younger brother, after four years of my marriage have still not accepted my husband and they want that I should come back to Hindu faith and follow all festivals etc.
So worse is the situation that now my brother has started commenting on FB openly in public about this. I mean it is my choice and I am happy with this and I guess what matters most in a marriage is happiness. So when I am happy, does not that mean that whomsoever loves me is happy the way I am. I have not changed a bit after my marriage but does the religion matter over the person who I am. I mean is religion everything that nothing else matters to my family. not even my happiness nothing. Please suggest. –Alex

Hi Alex,
We have modify your given name for your privacy, we hope that is okay with you.
This is sad that your brother is going against you in a wrong way. Faith is your personal matter and he has no rights in going public with it. Ideally he should talk to you behind closed doors.
There are different ways to handle this situation. You can hire a lawyer and file a law-suit to defame you or for irrational harassment. However, this will be a waste of money and poison in your relationships. We suggest you ignore it for a short while and meantime be friendly with him. Later, corner him and ask behind doors what are his issues. With good friendly relationship, get into rational and logical discussion with him. We can help you slowly going in this direction, if you wish. Let us know how you wish to proceed? Best wishes.
