<human>: So me and my girlfriend of three years have been looking at apartments for a while now and because im a student i only get about 490 $ per month in income for studying, that is WITHOUT taking a loan.

So yesterday we were checking out an apartment that looked pretty good and we got home and started crunching some numbers to see how much we'll be spending a month. And here is the thing, i've promised in the past just before we started looking at apartments that i would give 50 % of my income to the rent and so on. And here is where i started to panic.

After i've given 50 % of my income, i still have to pay my card to be able to ride the train to my school. After that i have 100$ left for a whole month. I realized that this weren't going to happen if i didn't get a student load and that was the one condition i had since the school i go to is just 30 min away with train.

So when i told this to my GF she was really upset, and i can understand that. I've let her down, i've lead her in on false expectations. I've basically been lying to myself and everyone else because i didn't think that my economy would be so low. I have 2 years left for studying.

Am i in the wrong here? I need some perspectives.

Can you give me a shortened version of the text?
<bot>: Me and my GF have been looking for apartments for a while now and when we finally may be able to get one, i chicken out because of my economy since i don't want to take any student loans.
