Ladies - Are you or would you be comfortable with a relationship that put you in total dependency of your partner?

Asked by CMaz (26303points) November 4th, 2010

I recently talked to a friend that moved out of state (2+ years ago) to be closer to her (at the time) new boyfriend. Working for the same company he works for.
He works two week in Florida two weeks in Texas.
He ends up getting a promotion to president of the company that has required her (requested) to quit her job.
So not to be a conflict of interest. No unemployment or severance.
She also sold her car and accepted a car (new BMW) as a “gift” from her BF. It is not in her name.

So currently. She is out of work. It was a 70K a year job. Owning nothing but a few dollars in her bank account.
The only safety net is the man that “loves” her. Paying her rent also. She not living with him.

Also, she did not have to leave. It was a choice. Him or the Job. She chose him. Would you choose the man over the job?
Not talking about about a husband. We are talking about a boyfriend.
