outside ur religion? Example: a christian date a muslim? Or a catholic? Or a Pentacostal? Would u study their religion and see if u believe their beliefs and change for the good of ur relationship? How far would u take it, if ur partner was VERY serious bout their beliefs?
I was a devoted Roman Catholic before I met my ex . He was a Buddhist and very serious about his beliefs. During the first year of our marriage it wasn't a problem yet but it began to be the caused of arguments after I gave birth ..

It was difficult and I gave up temporarily my religion for the sake of our relationship and he did some sacrifices too ..

Very good question! A couple of years ago, I was going to marry a muslim man and between reading up on what being a wife would entail I also was in face-to-face dialogue with another muslim. The situation wasnt about marrying a muslim as a christian. There were no issues with it. However the pressure of converting after marriage would be. A christian woman (even the most submissive) and a muslim woman have different insights as well as respond differently in marriage. Mostly because it's what you're raised to know and practice. I still dont have any reserves about marrying a muslim man but he would have to recognize that I wouldnt ever convert and things could be very different for him.
