Hey guys. I've ran into a small issue regarding my relationship/ personal life stemming from my career choices.
Long story short I'm an entrepreneur/ investor while I work part time and don't have a steady income. Until yesterday things were going well financially, made 40+ K from Jan-June, but I made a mistake and lost a huge chunk of my money. This loss and lack of steady income has be feeling inferior as my girlfriend has a reasonable steady wage and at this moment I feel like she is better of financially and that has me feeling like a bitch,
Is their a way of telling her this without seeming insecure/ like a broke bitch?
It's only an issue to her if you make it one.
How long have you been with her?
I would be straight up, honest and say I have hit a bad financial situation and you will be focusing on and doing everything you can to sort it out. If she's a decent girlfriend then she will support you while you work through it.
However, that said don't lean on her and expect her to solve your financial problems.
There's no need to feel inferior if you partner earns more than you.
It's a different matter if you are still in the dating phase, where my advice for that would be to stop dating and focus on your own problems.
