I think Dubai is liberal but I doubt that they are liberal enough to allow unmarried couples to cohabit. They will probably want a marriage certificate before they will give you a visa. You will be able to get a tourist visa for a month or so and renew it once or twice without leaving the country. It;s no big deal to slip across to Doha for a weekend though

You will not be able to get a visa to go with him if you are not his wife. You will have to get married before going if you want to be together. Also it's technically illegal for unmarried couples to live together, though there are many expats who do. But if you were to be reported by any of your neighbours or your building manager you both could face prison time and deportation If couples can be thrown in jail for a single kiss in public
