Is it a cool place to live? Only thing I´ve heard so far is that dublin is a pretty expensive city
I like living here anyway (I'm a native fwiw). I live in the suburbs on the south side of the city which most will agree is the nicest area to live. Differs from place to place, there's areas like Tallaght that you'll want to avoid as it's a kip full of scum (here they're called "knackers") and a few other areas that aren't great. Overall it's nice. Living at the foot of the south Dublin mountains for about 1,100 per month for a big house, nice view, people etc.
You should check out daft.ie, search south Dublin or if you're checking it out via postcode, it's all the even postcode numbers (Dublin 2,4,6,8,10,12...24). Areas you're best off living are in 4,6,14.16 and 18 though.
Guess it depends where your gf's workplace is, but there's a direct tram into the city centre where I'm living (Dublin 16).
It's not too expensive here anymore. Will depend on what you're after, I don't drink in bars too often as they're an absolute ripoff but booze can be bought pretty cheap, food has never been cheaper, great range of quality etc etc.
If you've more questions drop me a pm and I'll fill you in with whatever you want to know, or via aim/msn/skype/w/e
