I think that it may be a good thing for a future relationship - you can both take some time to get your lives together, become more financially stable, and perhaps come together in a more healthy place. It might also be that time apart will cause emotional distance - in that case, perhaps it wasn't meant to be.

While we were sorting out our lives, my husband (then boyfriend) and I spent six months apart after we'd been together for a few years. It was necessary and got us to a point where we could support ourselves. The separation didn't diminish our affection at all.

If this love is right, it will survive this and you should both focus on getting to a place where you can support yourselves and are happy. If you both then feel the same, you can work it out.
