I didn't imagine that my announcement to spend the rest of my life with the person I love would be met with anything but approval. Which is why it stung so sharply when that wasn't the case.

I felt your pain in reading about your experience. What stood out for me is something I... Read More’ve also blogged about in the past; treating what should be a “Simcha” event for the couple and their families as a “Shiva” event. Until organised Judaism and Jewish society (down to the immediate family level) learn to welcome The Other instead of rejecting him/her, we will continue to lose those who dare to fall in love with someone they come into contact with. The fact that there’s a commitment to run a Jewish home/raise Jewish children (even if not in the conventional sense) makes the reaction even more reprehensible. I hope that both families will in time come to regret their response and support you on your journey.
