He is a modern orthodox Jew
Natasha, 19, from NYC, asks:
So I met this guy online, he's 24 and he is a really nice guy compared to some or all of the guys I've been with back in Miami who have all been jerks. Me and him get along fine actually maybe more than great but he is a modern orthodox jew and well I'm Catholic and I guess he assumed I was jewish because my dad is Jewish and I don't know how to say this to him, he's religous and I really like this guy.
VictorM's advice:
You must tell him about your religion, today, right now!
He obviously has been upfront about his religion with you, something that appears important to him. You must do likewise. The longer you take, the harder it will be and the more you damage your chances that it can work out between you two. After all, if you tell him now, you'll both only have to deal with religion; if you wait, you'll still have to deal with it, but he'll have to deal with you also being a liar.
Really, you are not making it any easier on yourself by waiting.
