- My girlfriend is hot and makes good money. This has allowed me to not work since we moved in together three years ago. Basically I am the owner and founder of my own company, a men's lifestyle and humor blog, that I'm attempting to build into a multi-million dollar brand. I can promise you that you've never heard of it and I obviously won't promote it here because that would violate our code of ethics.
- Essentially this whole time that we've been living together my girlfriend has supported my dreams. She read the stuff I wrote, gave input for my quirky ideas and even helped film when I first attempted to expand my brand to Tik Tok. Gen Z ripped me apart and it was a dark time in my life and I insisted on giving up and she was there, by my side, the only person telling me not to.
- But now she was laid off from her job and my dreams are out the window. Like she'll definitely find work again soon and got a nice ass severance but now she wants me to get a job at a restaurant which would be fine except for the fact that the restaurant life sucks ass. Going back would ruin me.
- Long story short she came to me with this suggestion that I take up this job and I was like well why don't you quit SoulCycle first, that shit's overpriced and performative anyway and she got like disproportionately mad (this has been a sore spot for us, I've caught her texting her instructor multiple times). She turned it on me and was like why don't you get off your ass and get a job and I'm like sorry I didn't major in STEM but I do have a job, it's the blog.
- So she starts going on about financial stuff and then out of nowhere says get a real job or I'm done. And I say it is a real job, don't insult me. Then she says we need income and I say then quit SoulCycle first, but she won't because she obviously is into her instructor.
- So we're at an impasse. I don't want to be with someone who doesn't believe in the legitimacy of my work and is likely cheating. She doesn't want to be with somebody who brings in no money because he's investing in the future.
- How do I get the woman back who used to believe in me? Is that even possible, or should I just accept that it's done?
-
- tl;dr Girlfriend is forcing me to get a "real job" even though I have a real job which is running my own website
