Geirim, children of geirim, and the frum from birth Jews who marry them, are special people. But not everyone is made of the stuff that can handle what is in store for them.

So guys, are you prepared to join the likes of Moshe Rabeinu; Yehoshua; Unkolus; or even the previous leader of Neturei Karta, who all married wonderful women who converted.

There will always be the stigma of “goy” attached to your spouse and there is also the halachic obligation to give “honor” to the goyishe machutanim.

There will be the socializing with the “goyishe” cousins; brothers-in-law; sisters-in-law; aunts and uncles.

There will be “sholom bais” issues regarding visiting.

And your children will also have “shidduch” issues.

But it takes a special person and a special love.

I know.
