I have prayed for this. I have dated unbelievers, and prayed for them over and over and over and over. Unbelievers have free will. Their heart has not been opened by the Lord. Some of them are decent, honest, good people. The problem is that they will hinder your walk with the Lord. They do not place importance on spiritual things like you do. If you marry an unbeliever, at times it is successful. Many times Satan uses the person against you in a spiritual warfare. It is painful. This person is supposed to love you and they turn on you. Be careful. Maybe you will meet someone who is similar to you spiritually, either at your church or in life. Just pray hard about it. I have been very stubborn regarding this. Lord, I like THAT person, not the people at my church, that is until they show the devil they always were. Just be cautious with this girl. Put in prayer, not her, but finding God's match for you. I wish you the best.
2 Corinthians 6:14
