If your girlfriend has only Limited Leave to Remain on her grant of asylum, she may not be able to sponsor you as her spouse. Marrying in the UK won't extend your legal residence here. You really need to seek legal advice.

Assuming OP's partner does have limited leave as a refugee, see Requirements for leave to enter the United Kingdom as the spouse or civil partner of a person with limited leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom as a refugee or beneficiary of humanitarian protection which allows refugees to sponsor post flight spouses, but not there is no provision for leave to remain, only leave to enter.

I agree OP needs to seek legal advice
