Thank you for all the input, to all of you.

I talked to him about again. And yes we are having other problems. I just talked to him about it calmly and non acusitory. But I did let him know how it makes me feel. He seemed receptive this time and he apologized. He said he understands why it bothers me and that he really didnt think about it, and never meant to hurt my feelings. More impotently he said he will stop doing it and that he doesn't think my beliefs are silly, just that he doesn't understand.

We've talked about my beliefs so little that he actually doesn't even know what my beliefs are. So I feel this talk was good, he actually started asking questions and tried to understand what I even actually believe. That felt rather good actually. Just to be acknowledged.

The biggest thing with my spiritual journey which I think he can appreciate is how much it has helped me in regards to my mental illnesses, and a vast improvement on my outlook on life. I know that the improvements effect him too.

He isn't a jerk or anything, sometimes he's a little immature, or just maybe behind me a little. We've had very different lives and I had to grow up rather quickly, but I think our communication is slowly improving.

I'm happy with the outcome, so I hope it keeps going smoothly in this area. Thanks for reading and taking the time to reply.

Switch, thank you for sharing that. That's exactly what I am trying to prevent. I don't want it to grow into something big. I did ask him to just say something like " oh, interesting" instead if he doesn't know what to say, or to just ask if he doesn't understand. I think this will get better.
