Im in the EXACT same Boat...

Well interestingly enough, im in the identical situation.

Im a NON muslim and my GF is a muslim. in the past she considered getting married behind her partents back , but now she is full force for my conversion.

Fact is, i'm not religous at all , I would only be doing this for the sake of the marriage, and i think it would be transparent that i'm absolutely not interested in the religion, as a matter of fact, i may just make a mockery of it and insult true believers.

So, as we are now on the threshold of parting ways, its seems sad that yet once again religion claims another casualty.
