As a convert to the church, many if not most of my friends are non-members...so I can understand the relationship you have with your friend, ZTA, because i'm there as well. My opinion with LDS people who have non-member friends and family is that it's not any sort of intense pressure from the church itself that leads us to want to bring people to the Gospel...it's that we love it so much and what it's done in our lives and want the people we care about to feel the same joy. I, for one, would never pressure any of my friends to learn about it if they're not interested, but am simply always here if they do have questions or want to investigate the church a bit. But the truth is, when i'm hanging out with my good friends, church isn't something i'm usually thinking too much about at that point! The advice already given was great, to express to your friend that you enjoy spending time with her but aren't interested in the church. I imagine the pressure you're sort of feeling now won't continue, she likely just wanted to share with you her happiness! As a non-member, I dated an LDS boy who I really liked, and after establishing the fact that I wasn't interested in investigating (at the time, lol), he never even asked if I wanted to go to church with him or brought it up at all.
