Helping Girlfriend? Advice?

Renee • Just a girl in love.
Okay, I need an outsider's opinion on this matter. My boyfriend and I have been together for about 3 years and we're in love. My boyfriend has always struggled to make it on his own as his parents aren't as I would say "catering" as my own mother. I live under her roof and pay some of the bills no rent. My bf has his own place which he shares with roommates. He lives paycheck to paycheck and he recently lost his job and is trying to work for one of the driving services. He needed money for a deposit and I offered to help him with it. He didn't ask me or anything like that. I did it out of my own will because I love him and he needs a job to keep his apartment. I don't want him to lose it. From an outsider what does this look like? Is it something you would do for someone you love? Would you help someone you love financially if it meant it'd relieve them and help them?
