How to get a visa to Saudi Arabia?

Well my boyfriend works there and he suggested that I go check it out and maybe I can work there too and honestly I’m a bit concerned because he’s been a bit depressed lately and I want to check on how he is, but I wanted to know if there is a way that I can go for a visit and see how I will like it there before I actually sign a contract with some company?

I checked several websites and it sounds like getting a visa is almost impossible.

Does anyone have experience with this?
