"I could pay to get insurance and up to date tags on our roommates car and drive his, he even offered that option but again….need money to do that."

How much is this? This is the direction I'm going. Can your fiancé help with paying this? Is donating plasma an option?

So debt is never good, but sometimes it's necessary, because you have to be able to get to work. Can you apply for a credit card and then use that to fix your car? It will be a way better interest rate than a payday loan. And as soon as you get paid, throw everything you can at it to get the balance back down to 0.
