I’m no “agony aunt”, but I have been through a similar situation…although not based on a religious issue. The first lesson I learnt was that that there is no “right” way to proceed. There are no “rules” and there is no text book. The eventual decision you make WILL be the right one. What happens after that decision is made might be a different story…and you may have to tweak or adjust or change your plans further. Life’s funny like that…and we have to just cope with what happens, when it happens. So, if it was me, I would make a decision based on how I feel NOW…not on the millions of possible future scenarios. I would definitely not base it on what others believe I should do. That would really set me up for failure. I would go forward using my best judgement and deal with the future as it unfolds. Best of luck.
