If you are both religious, both religions forbid converting to other religions. So from this point of view it is a complicated situation, specially If each of you want to keep your beliefs and families.
And even if you both are not religious your families may be, And this way one of you has to leave his or her family behind while there is no guarantee that the other one's family will accept the marriage or relationship.
If you are not sure he wants to marry you make yourself sure about that first. Because you are thinking about marriage while he may just want to be in a relationship with you for a period.
The only real way to get along and marry is when you are both mature and independent from your families and then if you're not religious one of you converts to the other one's religion and will marry each other.
but there's nothing that you can do right now.
My Muslim cousin recently married a Jew... Honestly, everyone was against it. The elders boycotted the wedding. I only went to watch the drama unfold. But surprisingly, it was largely drama-free.
My cousin and her now-husband are exceptional people. Both -extremely-successful lawyers. When you are of a certain age, independent and powerful like they are... no one can really stop you from being with who you want... You're under 18 now, so of course, your parents will dissuade you... In fact, their parents tried SO hard to break them up. But they stayed together. For 10 years. If you can prove that your relationship can last through something like that... your parents, your family will HAVE to acknowledge that this is something real.
Your faith mandates that you can only marry a muslim man. If he really wants marriage you must think about what religion to raise the kids, which could be a contention if either of you is religious.
You're young though so I would give it some time and thought before you take the leap. Marriage is a very serious thing. But the relationship is not something your family will approve of since, like I said earlier, Islam mandates muslim women can only marry muslim men. Plus, from what I know, Islam has a very negative view on jews, so your family will probably be in an uproar over it.
If you live in the USA then just wait until you're old enough and get married. The only thing is that you have to make sure he's right for you.
If you live in another country like in the Middle East then you obviously have to worry about your life, it's a life/death situation over there.
First of all you are not allowed as a girl to marry a non-muslim guy it's a sin in Islam so I guess your parents won't approve it and when you are talking about getting married think about children how they will grow up muslims or jewish
I honestly don't know but may God help you on this

As a muslim girl
You can't religiously marry him as you are only able to marry a muslim guy
But if you don't care about religion
Then why would it matter when you think about marrying him?
Just think about the reasons behind why you are asking this
Is it to genuinely find out if you can marry him... answer is no
Or you know you can't and are looking for that someone to say yes yso ou can and follow that opinion because you prefer it
Half of US Jews reject racism and marry non Jews. And most Us Jews are descendants of European converts anyway
It's more difficult because you're currently under your parents roof. Many Muslims who go on campus live their lives how they wish. If his parents are orthodox Jews they likely won't approve of you, unfortunately.
I'm sorry but I don't think it will work out between you two. Your religions are so different. I guess its not an issue if you both don't practice.
