I was in a great relationship with a Latin American girl I met whilst studying abroad, and we lived together for three months during my last year at University in the UK. Coming here to stay with me was a big sacrifice for her in the first place - living with a boyfriend is not the 'done thing' over there.
Unfortunately, after this time our money ran out and she had to go back home. So we ended up in a long distance relationship, which we both found way too stressful as we had no idea when we might be able to see each other again, and ended up splitting up. Now I'm back home living with my one parent who is on a very low income. I have a temporary job which is pretty much full time until I find something related to my degree. My girlfriend's parents think we're still together, and she is in a difficult situation. We both care a lot for each other still, and she wants to come and live with me. It would be very difficult, but I think we'd be happy...What's best?

Don't live with her. Get married if you are really that in love. Your financial situation does not sound that stable. You need to turn that temp job into something permanent, then get married then settle in together.

I have been in a simulair situation. we ended up trying it again, but this time we both had to work two incomes is always better and it is kind of up to your parent too. if you love each other the way you say you both do then everything will work out just fine. as long as your both working 50/50.

I'm very much the romantic and not much of a realist, so I don't know how qualified I am to say, but I'm going to anyway. I'd say be together. If you have your priorities straight, you can be happy without a lot of money. Money can't make you happy, love can. So get back together! :-)

I think you both should just wait. If you both truely love eachother, then wait until you or her get on your feet. It wouldn't be fair to bring her to your parents house. If you want her here then you will need to get your own place and she can get a little job too to help out. But don't bring her to your parents house, that's not smart. Sooner or later you will get a good job and then you can bring her to be with you and have your own privacy.

Look... if you never try then you will never get an answer. If there's anything ever worth it to you, then you should go for it!
