It is not always the case that Mormons only date other Mormons. When I was young, I dated a lot of girls, and some of them were not LDS. Much of my family live outside of Utah and they also date people who are not LDS. But..... if you are dating a girl that is active LDS and knows what she's doing, she will not marry someone who is not also LDS.
The goal of most active LDS young men and women is to get married in the temple. If you aren't ok with that, then maybe to save yourself some heart ache, maybe you should avoid the relationship. If you can respect her for her own beliefs and desires, and your desires are also pure and truly motivated by love (meaning charity, not romantic love) then go for it. If she rejects you... not much you can do. But at least you gave it your best.
Mormons want to get married in the temple because they believe that when a person accepts Christ as their personal savior, AND accepts His gospel and restored in these last days by Jesus Christ himself, then they have the opportunity to marry in the temple for all of this life and for the rest of eternity as well. Marrying outside of the church doesn't exactly fall in line with that goal. And, putting all of the Mormon philosophy aside, marriage between people of like minds is a lot easier... She would most likely want to raise the kids in Mormonism and teach them things you might not like... how would you work that out? Just some thoughts...

Demonstrate that you are a trustworthy, unselfish, nurturing, sensitive, caring, loving person and then let nature take its course.

Please understand that Mormon only date mormons or somebody they they think will convert to their church! Which is very wacky!! Please reconsider or be honest with her and see what she says, if you do not wish to become mormon.
