How long are you together? First post says 6 months, and your next one says a year and a half, which can make quite the difference.
You have to make sure that you know that spending time together and living together are NOT the same. When you spend time, you DO stuff most of the time, while living together is a lot more boring than that. Have you spent long periods together (like a vacation or something)? When I went on vacation with my ex, I realized that I really didn't want to live with her, and that was only after a quick 4-day city trip!
As for the financial side, make clear rules. Be sure that she also does her share, it doesn't have to be money, but taking care of the housework, cooking, etc, until she gets a job. Make it clear from the start that, even though she doesn't have a form of income, you still expect her to help you out.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
