well, all i can think of is that... show everything that you've got for your girlfriend starting now, until the time that she's about to leave. But, make sure that before that big day comes, you've already talked about serious things like coping up. You know, there are very few long distance relationships that end up successful. I just hope you'd be brave enough to let go of each other when time tells you to give up because it's going nowhere. both of you has to be ready because no one knows exactly what will happen next after she leaves. you don't really want to end up being broken right?
goodluck!

Sorry for the multiple posts.. My computer said it was not posted so I tried again. Anyway, most companies in Dubai give free air fare every two years, some good companies give it yearly. So it will not take your gf 3 to 4 years to see you again.
You can also get a visit visa for around 30k for 1 mo and 50k for 2 months. That includes air fare.

How far away from you is Dubai? Is there any way for you to visit her every few months or so? Or maybe even find a job nearer to Dubai and a place to live nearer to Dubai, so that you can be closer to her? If you really love her, try to find a way to be closer to her, or give her a promise ring before she leaves, promising that once she returns you will marry her? I'm sorry I can't help further but I am not quite sure what you are asking for.

to be frank, i am over with this kind of set-up. i am not disappointing you, but if you will just open up your eyes, there are lots of relationships that were broken when one of the partners is abroad, working or something. i know a few that if not separated, they relationship turned cold. of course, not all set-ups turned this way and ended to total separation, there are still majority that remains warm and good. remember the song "napakasakit kuya eddie"?
i myself will not leave my family to work abroad. not just because i am afraid something will happen between me and my wife. but i am already married and have kids, and though i am thinking about their future, i can't help to think i will be away from them for years.
if you really love each other and sure for yourselves that you can wait for that long, and to think she is leaving for a good cause, then let her leave. anyway, you can always talk with each other even she is in that place. you can always use the internet to chat with each other. you have phones, call each other often and send text messages.
