BUT don't waste your money on a $200-500 tent. Go to your local super sized sports store. For me it's a Gander Mountain, Dicks, Target, not REI. Look for a 4x6', 2 pole pop up tent. You should find one on sale for about 29.99 (USA) Get a $4.99 bottle of seam sealer. Soak it down. Good to go.
I've had expensive and cheap tents. They all leak a with a hard rain 6-8 hours rain. Save your money.
For winter camping....Tents knock the wind chill off, but not the actual temp....
Best bet with your girlfriend.. Day hike (winter time) and sleep at night in the back off your full size SUV. Start it up every 6 hours. It's about 20 degrees warming then a tent. She will appreciate it.
Have fun.

I would venture to say that you have never been in a high mountain storm in a $30.00 tent. And for the record, my TNF MTN 25 does not leak no matter how long it rains assuming I did not pitch it in a wash.
Get real.
