Getting girlfriend from a different culture to move in with me?

[Orange37]

Currently i have a fair sized apartment which i live in and would like my filipino girlfriend to move in with me. I went the extra mile to get her german shepherd accepted on the property. But she has strict parents which micromanage and she gets scared to tell them that she is going out. Has anyone delt with this before? The only time i see her really is when she pretends to go to work and comes over here. I feel like shell be stuck at her parents house till she's 50. Whats the best way for her to break the cycle and be independant enough not to be controlled by her parents. She pays for some of their bills.

Filipinos have a deep respect for their parents and if the parents say no living together, then she won't live with you. For the rest of her life, what her parents say will carry more weight than what you say. If you win over the parents, you'll be fine but you need to adjust to her culture.

Because it’s wrong to live with a women without marrying her

This is how her parents i believe are which is too controling. Wed both marry eachother when financially ready but we should still be able to live together beforehand

Her parents are doing right by keeping her away from u. Guys like u are reported to police in Filipino culture. And are deemed characterless
