ADVICE NEEDED: My girlfriend refusing to work for 30 days, should I be upset?

I've got $40 here she can earn

I agree with you. On the whole, I think it is better when the wife is able to stay home with kids. Both feel supported--husband feels good about financial care of family and wife feels supported and like she has strong support to the husband. Both need to be supportive of each other. I have seen a couple of wives who don't do anything and I don't think that is fair. But I have seen wonderful examples where both are responsible and supportive.

Hooker.

Well that business will probably shut down very soon, so it really won't make much difference if she goes to work or not.

Just break up with her

What state do you live in. We got 15 and I think maybe a 16th that have locked down already. Can’t she hold hold until it’s locked down?

Aren’t they all closed? And getting that close to a person right now is not good. It’s not essential.

OP, there are banks currently offering mortgage payment deferrals. I would call your mortgage lender and tell them your circumstances. One missed payment will not cause you to go into foreclosure and make you lose your home. Same with your car. The $1000 should get you by for three weeks if you keep the spending tight and if you already have some food on hand. If you run out, check your local community paper to find out where there are locations for free food pick-up. Good places to look at are your local churches. We have one down the road from us here that offers a food pantry for those in need every two weeks. Also, have your girlfriend take a look at a site called Nextdoor.com. Find your neighborhood and she can register for free. There, she can either look for a 'temp help wanted' post that doesn't require a lot of direct contact with people, or either of you can list something you want to sell for some quick cash.

OP tell her this information, and that'll be the End of that worrying!



The Coronavirus is a game! not that deadly! no more than a flu! This game is to get the population and economy all into a Stand still! Then...

Shut down the internet for a day or two. To get our Full attention! for Truth exposure, Arrests, and for some kinda Divine Event, then Disclosure will be Last!

The World will not be continue to go round and round! This is it! This is the Jesus 2nd coming process.

They want us All to be in our houses and then have internet shutdown , so it can begin! They have us right where they want us! The Good guys! Not the bad.


Well i think Jesus coming back will be After the disclosure or during disclosure. He is said to be on Air some point during Full Disclosure. ''All Eyes will See him''


This is the highest Intel u can get! Spread far and wide! will help to lessen the worries and fear.


And Q+ is someone from high above! and im not talking about human ranks

That is why no one should live together without marriage. There is no commitment. She needs to leave if he doesn’t care how she feels and not look back. And never live with a man without marriage again.

responding to my own post.

and OP your wife do not have to go to work because of What's coming! She made the Right decision! maybe subconsciously.

I agree. If you're in a relationship, it's about support. It's her car- her problem.

I am so grateful that when this started my husband said to me, 'take the next month off. I'll pay you what you make'.

Even though it's difficult and frustrating to be in the house this long, I am so grateful that he didn't put me in a position to make that same decision.

and once the Internet goes down... You will know that's When It All begins. So just wait on that. not long now.

This ^^

Rather than quit or just not show up, tell her to talk to her boss and tell them she has a cough and a low fever and that wants to self-isolate for at least a week to make sure she doesn't have COVID-19.

In a week from now there's a good chance your state government will order businesses closed or have a mandatory shelter in place order.

Now that you're working for him for the next month, did he lay out what your new duties would be?

Yo my Mrs is a message therapist too. Same problem.

Her professional associatiom has said not to work, a lot of her clienta are sick /elderly thus bug problem if she gets infected from one and passes it round.

My gf now looking for new casual work, delivery driver etc.

Tough times brother. Take care x

Broke men have these problems. Go getters DO NOT. I come from a long line of men who did what they had to do. They NEVER whined about why a woman wasn’t helping them ..REAL MEN GET IT DONE,! THOSE WERE THE MEN WHO BUILT AMERICA.

crazy times, but like the song....all u need is love.

let her do want she feels, give it 30 days.

happy spouse, happy house..

Better off alive and poor, than scraping by and dead.

tell her she can (a) leave through the front door to go to work or (b) leave through the front door in a suitcase

whats it going to be?

Hey OP, SoberLife, Digital Mix Guy here. I am saving this thread to my favorites. please do keep us posted. you have my genuine prayers and sympathies. I respect you for what you are trying to do.

What does she say when you tell her this? Meaning, ask her what is her solution for not losing the house and vehicle if she stays home.

let her relax for a month.

just protect little Junior with an umbrella during this time..

If you were refusing to work, she'd be throwing a fit calling you a deadbeat loser. Note women's behavior during this time...

Are these threads for real? Is everyone on this site just a dumbass? What happened to GLP!?!?!?!? What happened!!!!!

Downsize immediately. Sell her car. Put her on a strict Ramen noodle diet. Shut the main breaker off and padlock the service door on your way to work. Has worked for me bro, going on 8 years now.

It's not just that you're unsympathetic, it's that you're a complete dipshit.

Seriously, OP, you're a fucking idiot.

Your girlfriend needs to find a smarter man to hitch her wagon to.

If you can't understand the logic of staying home right now, and how that reasoning completely and totally trumps your counterargument, then you're the problem, not her.

Stop paying for her car.

I would ask her what she thought of you deciding not to go to work. If the fear is real, she’d probably support it...
