What do I do now, /r9k/? Give up because her family would never accept a non-Jew? Convert? Pretend that I was Jewish all along?

If she's Orthodox (or Orhodoxish at the very least), she won't go for you. I was briefly infatuated with a girl who did the whole yeshiva thing, I believe she wouldn't even shake men's hands. (I later realized that she'd studiously avoided this when we first met, though we got on well.) She just married, you guessed it, an Orthodox guy. She still has the most stunning eyes.
If not, there's a good chance she'd go for it.
If they're not orthodox, you're probably fine.
I'm on the other side of the whole thing, I guess, as a Jew that grew up in a non-observant family. I never had a Jewish community to be part of, but I was always "the Jew" to everybody else, and even if they acted like friends, like I was part of the group, it always eventually came back to really offensive jokes about my heritage, funny to everybody in the whole group except me, and left me with nothing but resentment for the fact that I always an outsider despite being exactly like everybody else except for the fact that my grandparents lit a menorah instead of a Christmas tree.
I'm incredibly paranoid about dating and stuff, too, so many people have so many fucking conspiracy theories and paranoias and misconceptions about Jews that probably half the women in the country have parents that would reject me.
