I Feel Confused About These New Feelings

My father is a Pastor and I grew up in a Christian family, Christian friends and studied in a Christian school until I finished high school. To make the story short, I met this guy because of our common friends. At first, we were fighting about little things but as the time went by, we learned to deal with each other. He asked me to hangout before Christmas and I had fun to be honest. Since then, we're always together. He will escort me from our house and walk together, talk and eat. He introduced me to his parents and I did the same. He is cute and adorable but when I posted a "no caption" photo of us (which is drastically wholesome!) a lot of my churchmates messaged me. Asking questions like: who is that guy? What's your relationship with him? And this question that really sucks "Is he a Christian?". I answered those questions with full honesty and my Christian friends adviced "don't be attached" followed by some wiseful advice. I think there is nothing wrong with him. He grew up in a non-Christian family so don't expect that I can easily bring him to church. Though my family let our relationship because he's actually better than the other guys inside the Church. I'm not saying that Christian guys are not good, they are absolutely good. But I hope other Christians like me won't judge a person by their beliefs. Faith, hope, love but the greatest of these is Love.

He respects me for who I am and he even pray with me when we are having our meals. He even reply at times "God bless you too".

I don't even know why I am sharing this 馃槀馃槝
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

12 For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

This is a tough situation, as the bible warns us to not be unequally yoked, meaning that we are supposed to be with Christians, I wish you the best.
1st Corinthians Ch.13.. I've memorized. Quote it daily to always remember that if what we do isn't done in love it profiteth me nothing
