Why can't different cultures work out in relationships?

Okay, my bf and I broke up 3 days ago and we been going out for a year and 4 months. He's a pakistani muslim, and Im white with no religion. His mom just recently passed away (a month ago) and since then of course, he's been all messed up with his emotions. Well 3 days ago when we broke up he said that his mom said to stick with the culture. He said he is scared of being outcasted by his family and that his dad will take everything away from him. He said that he cant give me what I want, and he wants to see me happy, but I'm not happy because I'm not with him. I am willing to convert to muslim, and I love him so much with all of my heart. He said that he is very concrete with his family decision, and that he needs his family more than ever. He also said that he isn't willing to risk losing his family either. I just don't know what to do. I'm just so confused. Do I give it time, let it play out, and see if he misses me and comes back, or do I just stay friends with him and move on and find someone else? Please help.
