I am glad to hear she’s exploring faith on account of your influence. And I think its important that she develops a relationship with God of her own volition. Sometimes a person picks up interests their partner shares and drops them when the union ends. Her investment must be genuine whether you remain or not.
It is equally possible that she could have a change of heart. This is the challenge of dating new believers. If she falls away then what? You’re back at this point.
Situationally, you’re in different seasons. You must consider whether you’re willing to endure the strain or if its better to cool your heels, get established, and support her as a friend instead.
All relationships will have difficulties. But few can handle continual instability without growing tired. You’re taking on a lot and bring your share of baggage. You must determine whether she’s worth the hardship.
Do you see a brighter road ahead? In short, do you believe in her to the degree where your discomfort is worth the greater thing you can have?
I don’t think anyone can answer that for you. But I will say its easier to fight for something you believe in rather than one you don’t. And in some instances you don’t recognize their worth until you part.
I went through something similar. We were young and stubborn. We saw a shadow not the whole. Time apart opened our eyes. We finally saw the other. The obstacles were nothing in relation to the possibilities we glimpsed.
It takes a loving person to look beyond your lack and imperfections. It takes a humble heart to see their own in light of yours and recognize the blessing they’ve found.
There are no perfect relationships. Just two souls wholly committed to something better and becoming better through mutual influence.
That’s the person who sees your beauty. The one who truly makes you try.
