Confessions: Girl I want to marry is unwilling to meet me halfway on key issues

 I wish to marry her because she has all the qualities I want (Photo: Shutterstock)

I am a 26-year-old university student. I have a beautiful girlfriend on the same campus and we love each other very much. She is not ready to be married to anyone else but to me. I also wish to marry her because she has all the qualities I want. But I have one challenge; she is four years older than me though looks younger in appearance. She claims she is a virgin, has never had a boyfriend, and is not ready for sex before marriage. The thing that annoys me most is she is a serious Christian and wants us to strictly have a church wedding, which I have never admired even once since and am not a good believer in matters of Faith. Also, her home is thousands of kilometres from mine. I am truly in love with this woman. We meet almost daily to negotiate on some of the mentioned issues but she sticks to her stand. She is always on my mind. I am left confused. What can I do now?
