Why I gave my boyfriend Science and Health

I’ve always felt uncomfortable sharing Christian Science. My religious beliefs feel very personal to me because I’m only just beginning to understand them. Also, I’ve never wanted people to think I was trying to convert them.

In the past, when I’d shared Christian Science with a boyfriend in order to explain how I approach life and difficult situations, either he was unsupportive, or he got combative, arguing that the Bible and God weren’t real. This made me feel even less motivated to share my beliefs and explain them to those I felt close to.
