Chitra, you are only one step away from converting to Islam and marry this Muslim guy!!! Once you have converted, you will see the true nature of Islam when you lose all your freedom and are treated like a slave. And here is the final "good" news for you, converting to Islam is a one way street and you will never be allowed by Muslims to convert back to Hinduism since the penalty for apostates( that is leaving Islam) is death!!!
I think that you are getting delusional in putting too much trust in Muslims. I don't deny that this Muslim did a good decent human duty in protecting you and your friends but you should thank him and just leave it that and not get emotionally involved with him and other Muslims.
I am sure you have heard of "love jihad" by Muslims boys in Kerala - a word to the wise is sufficient. You should protect yourself from future disaster that you are courting now. I don' think your parents like it, if they are aware of your relationship with Muslims. As a true Maratha, you should remember the legacy of Chatrapati Shivaji and what he did to protect Hinduism in central India. You should not do anything that would put his legacy to shame!!!
