Welcome to the forum Andrew good to hear you enjoy your stay here in the Philippines.

The best advice i can give you is to give yourself a chance to get to know the girl very well especially if you want to be with her..
Honesty and trust is the best foundation of a relationship to work so its best to be open with her, speak to her whats on your mind and heart and let her understand the reason why you want her to quit working.

Happy Christmas
