I dont mean to sound harsh, but she seems to have no "interest" or "care" for her religion and her Creator, just you, as your one that Allaah created, your one Allaah put life into(same for her) and have blessed you with so many blessings, Countless blessings that have been bestowed upon you by the All Mercyful and yet those exist that do not realise that even if its part of their own faith, the reason for that is because they havent been taught about their religion and how important these things are to think about.
You must realise that Islaam doesnt permit such relationships, "Love" comes after Marriage and not before marriage. Ok lemme post a hadeeth that may enlighten you upon the topic of Marriage in Islaam.
The Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"A man marries a woman for four reasons: for her property, for her rank, for her beauty, and for her religion (and character). So marry the one who is best in the religion and character and prosper".
( Marriage quotation from Bukhari and Muslim)
Be very very careful when you make decisions into marrying one, marrying one because of their looks or attraction i would say is the last option or second option, but first comes the piety/character/taqwa of one, how much they fear Allaah, their love for their creator, their trust and hope in him as he is our one and only true Creator.
And please do not say that you can teach her about it and stuff, leave that upon her and her family, although you must let her know that this whole relationship you are in is a sin, and it can become an even huger sin if you continue in the relationship, the best of you is those who realises their mistake and repents and hopes not to go back! But dont forget to keep her in your DUaas/prayers.

I respect you for that brother, Allaah guided you to the righteous path, it must feel like a great feeling, you must now follow that righteous path if you wish to continue on this path to please your creator. . . .
