Seeking advice as a revert in a relationship with a Christian

As-salamu alaykum, I reverted to Islam about 5 years ago. Before that, I wasn't really practicing, but since the last Ramadan, I've turned a new leaf-repenting sincerely, making my prayers, staying away from big sins, and gradually working on the smaller stuff. Here's where I need help: I've been seeing a Christian woman for almost two months now. We work together, and I truly like her. I've even connected well with her family. But I keep feeling this internal struggle. On one side, I know that following the halal path means avoiding physical closeness and setting clear boundaries, or even stepping away. On the other, there's that voice hoping something good could come out of it. My worries are pretty specific: - Long-term, I'm unsure if our different faiths would pull us apart, and we just can't seem to discuss this seriously. - It's tough to walk things back when they've already gone further than they should. - Staying makes me feel guilty, but the thought of ending it and hurting her feels just as bad. - I've been in situations like this before, and that makes me think I might not be fully ready for marriage. So, what steps should I take now? And how do I break this cycle from repeating? JazakAllahu khair.
