Sooo I like my friend for a long time already, and almost everyday she would call me and we would talk for a couple of hours. I like her a lot, but she can't date because she's muslim and im non-muslim. However, friday i texted her to see what's up and saturday i texted her that i missed her and she texted me back late late at night saying she just came back from her family's gathering and shes really tired and she said plz dont expect me to call everyday... Soo im feeling kinda hurt from that and I don't know how to respond. i just texted her back i know i understand. How do I go to approach this? I really like her and she tells me literally everything in her life and I would be willing to convert to islam if she really does like me (i have no religion as of now), but I'm afraid to tell her because everytime i tell a girl that i like her, it fails..
*edit she called back yesterday but i kinda didnt give her a chance to talk about it.....

The first answer just goes to prove that this world is full of narrow minded fools.
You have a number of different issues here, the first has to be to find out if she actually likes you. If no then you have to leave it there. If it's a yes then changing to Islam will not mean you are welcomed with open arms into her family, this might be a cultural thing where her family may want a Muslim and someone of the same nationality as them.
You may find that you want this girl because you are infatuated and we all want what we can't have (I know this very well myself) when you get her the relationship might not be what you thought it was going to like ,and all this worry was for nothing.
Get the first step out of the way, tell her how you feel if she feels the same, then try and win the family over. Take one step at at time!

Tell her how you feel. Tell her what you are willing to do for her. If she rejects you, yes, it will hurt, but you will know. Knowing is much better than not knowing (that parts driving you crazy, and to ask us [another sign of being crazy {just kidding}]). This could be beautiful.
Don't be offended if her family is leery of you. You are converting just to be with her. They will most likely see through that. You will need to embrace your new religion as well as your new love. She will appreciate that more too.
If it doesn't go well ("plz dont expect me to call everyday"), then you'll cry, and hurt, but you should still have a friend. Cherish that.

It's easy to have those feelings for someone you know, trust, respect, ..maybe even love. BUT you also know, I'm sure, that by putting this on the table a little bit you're putting her in a bad spot- religion and love....respect her beliefs(assuming they are HER beliefs) and be there- still be a BF and if it is meant to be...

You're being a punk about this whole thing....you'll be converting to islam in the next 45 minutes.
