Cross cultural, is it working? or it is just a hallucination?

I am in my delima for couple of months now.

I am not only dealing with someone who is from a completely different cultural background, even completely different religion. You may think that, is it a big deal? isn't it Malaysia is a multi racial, cultural and religion nations? yes, I agreed to this statement. We all live in peacul and harmony life in this nation because we all want to avoid conflict amongst the races here.

We had many discussion and we talked over it many times. He claims that he is not a true follower/believer with his religion. Still, I would say, he still following it at least 50%. He claims that he is not very "close" to his culture and he hasn't been living in that country for 20 odd years. He claims that he doens't even know what is "his culture". Is that possible? I don't know...

In the end, I decided, whatever it is... I am hoping that he is sincere.
