Dear Justin,

Thanks for pointing out :) much appreciated.

I tried selecting "1" and the process seemed to stop after the work "Atomtype 1", please see below:

Select the Water Model:
 1: SPC    simple point charge, recommended
 2: SPC/E  extended simple point charge
 3: None

Opening force field file ./gromos53a6_lipid.ff/aminoacids.r2b
Reading prot_moved.pdb...
Read 4914 atoms
Analyzing pdb file
Splitting PDB chains based on TER records or changing chain id.
There are 1 chains and 0 blocks of water and 310 residues with 4914 atoms

  chain  #res #atoms
  1 'X'   310   4914  

All occupancies are one
Opening force field file ./gromos53a6_lipid.ff/atomtypes.atp
Atomtype 1

Not sure what happened... 
Since there is an option "1" available now, do I still need the gromos53a6_lipid.ff in my current working directory?

Thanks a lot!

You would have gotten this if you had chosen the proper force field with 
pdb2gmx.  Option 1 (which includes the Berger lipids) is the correct one. 
Option 14 is the vanilla Gromos96 53a6 force field, which is not what you want.
