I believe that this actually has more to do with the church as a whole rather than the individual. In this Chapter Paul is speaking to the church about missions and their work there. Two verses later Paul says "And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God..." II Corinthians 6:16a
I believe that this is saying that the church should not join with other faiths in missions and other works since their beliefs could contradict each other in places and cause more confusion than conversion.
I doubt you will change her mind. Though look at me. I have actually been in her place, turned down many dates on the basis of my religion. Now I would date anyone (if I was single) as long as I felt we were compatible or able to work things out.
