B2 visa for 6 months stay in US [closed]

My girlfriend is applying for a J1 visa to study in Texas for 5 months and 15 days. I want to travel with her and stay with her the whole time. I will not study or work there.

I'm Brazillian and already have a B1/B2 visa with an expiration date in 2029 and as I'm not married, I can`t apply for a J2 visa.

Relevant facts about me:

As I will stay 5 and half months, I will quit my job and I will live with my savings and with my girlfriend scholarship funding.
Enough funds to stay for the whole time (I will bring 10K US with me, it is enough?).
No houses in Brazil. Just a car, bank account, some furniture, etc.
Parents and siblings in Brazil.
Would travel starting around August 2019 and come back in January 2020.
Will be there with airlines round-trip tickets purchased.
Me and my girlfriend will travel in the same flight.

I traveled to Chicago this year (May) to stay for 1 week and the officer gave me 6 months stamp, expiring in November 2019. So, I believe that there will be no problem to stay 6 months according to law.

But it is safe to travel there because I will stay there for a long time with my girlfriend which have a different visa?
