We committed Zina; I repented and started practising Islam but she hasn’t. Should I still marry her or move on?

I met this girl in high school and we started “dating” about a year ago. Four months in, she told me she had sex with her previous boyfriends, which really upset me since I was a virgin and wanted to be with one. Instead of telling her it was wrong, I committed zina with her myself. I also used to drink and do many bad things. I really want to help this girl, but the more I try to help, the more she pushes me away. I don’t know what to do? Should I stay with her and keep telling her about Islam and hope she repents one day. Should I leave her and move on.

But here is where it gets complicated because he says that he will marry me but not until he finishes his degree and/or if I get a good job.
