I've had three Jewish boyfriends--one was a practicing Jew, the other two were not. All three were intelligent, kind, compassionate and thoughtful.
The mother of boyfriend #1 hated me because I went to a Catholic high school and she wanted her son to date Jewish girls.
She was vaklempt at my non-Jewishness.
the last Jewish boyfriend I had was a NYC Jew who didn't practice. He seemed very exotic to me more because of his NYC background than his Jewish background.

"Shall I give you a kiss?" Peter asked and, jerking an acorn button off his coat, solemnly presented it to her.
