If you believe that, then shouldn't you avoid relationships with theists, since they're not going to value you?
I have found that it is best to avoid relationships with people who have idiotic beliefs whenever reasonably possible. So I do avoid relationships with theists, though not completely and absolutely, as that is not practically possible.
Typically, theists do not value atheists very much. Atheists are one of the most hated groups in America. (Source 1 and source 2.) Who needs "friends" who are prejudiced against one?
