Just be yourself and if they don't like you thats their problem. They can't judge you by a tatoo. My son's girlfriend has them all over her body , and I never made her feel bad about them. She is the sweetest girl and when your younger , we all do stupid things.It is nice of you to take classes in Judism, are you doing it to learn his religion or are you planning to convert? Remember one thing if you are doing it just to please him that his wrong to, for you have a family and you probably would hurt them. Unless of course you don't practice your faith. I know people who have married and have kept their own religion and it has worked. They celebrate both holidays etc....
Good luck to you!

Excellent advice...I think! Nothing wrong with sharing two religions and when a family does come along, they can decide when they are older.
