well, i dunno if u r still looking for opinions or not, but here's mine: i can't say i'm a catholic bcs i dont attend mass...EVER! [i used to, but its been a long time since i've stopped]. anyway, i belive in God, while my bf doesn't. he, too, is an atheist. we've been together for almost 2 years now, and thanks to the fact that we respect each other, that we don't force any belifs on one another, we've gotten along perfectly fine. evry now and then we discuss what we'd do if we ever got married and had children, what we'd teach them, if to believe or not to believe. honestly speaking, i don't think much about it. until it happens, i haven't wanted to enter the matter, but my thought is i'd teach them to believe. that's not the point, anyway; point is, so far we've gotten along just fine regardless of the fact that i believe there's a God and he doesn't. if u both know how to deal with that, if it doesn't bother u that she believes and it doesn't bother her that u don't [as it seems rather clear from what u said] then there should be no problem. as long as u both respect each other's thoughts and opinions [as it seems u do] there shou;d be no problem about the future. when the time comes u can discuss what will happen with ur children's instruction on religious beliefs, and until then, there should be no collision

If you truly have your heart set on at least attempting to become Christian, I'd ask her about it. Ask her what it means, what she believes. She'll help you. You may be surprised at how you can change, and feel good about it. I was atheist most of my childhood, but I'm Christian now, and I'm happier.
Now this isn't the advice I think most Christians would give, but if you give it a try and/or just decide it's not who you are, ask her for a compromise. Even if you can't believe in God, perhaps you could choose to live by His morals? Y'know, love thy enemy, be accepting and selfless, and generally a good person. Talk to her about that as well.
Whatever you choose, whether it be Christianity, a compromise, or nothing at all, remember that she should accept you for who you are. Never feel that you have to be someone you're not. If she loves you she'll understand that. You say you'd give anything for each other.
