Been together six months and shes recently moved in. Just lost her job and shes asking me to support her financially while she gets her feet back on the ground. I dont know what to do. On one hand I love her and want her to be happy but on the other hand I barely have enough money to cover bills myself and not sure I can afford to give her much. I dont want to lose her though as she is my whole world. What shall I do?

Sit down together and adjust budget? Cut food costs etc. Make it work.

People you care about are worth more than dollars IMO.

In what way? Paying the full rent/utilities I assume? Does she want you pay other thing like her car? Is she looking for another job? Does she have anything in savings?

Sit down with her and come up with a financial plan. See where you can both (but mostly her) cut nonessential costs so you can stay under budget, and work out a timeline for how long you could go like that before things start to break down. That way she has a clear deadline for "getting back on her feet", she is giving something up in exchange for your support, you've giving up something small as a token sense of fairness, and you can actively monitor how serious she is being about everything.

You two need to sit down and work out how you'll cut costs or you call it quits with her. I like the latter.

You frankly don't owe her anything, so don't feel pressured to help her if you can't.

"Looking for a job" doesn't even cut it.

He's supposed to jeopardize his living situation over someone he met just 6 months ago? Better to find yourself someone who can pull their own weight.

Not yet. Only been a few days. Says she needs some time to get her head straight which I think is fair enough.

A lot of people here feel depressed or without purpose. In that position making something your whole world isn't really a big deal since before then your whole world had no value

Not when you two are barely making ends meet. "Time to get your head straight" is a gift given to those who have spare money in the bank to live off of. Otherwise, she needs to get her head in the game and get a new job.

Just had an argument because she wanted taxi fair to go to a friends house and I wouldn't give it to her. I offered to drive but needed to be an hour later while I finished off. Man she's kicking off because I'm "stopping her from doing what she wants to do" but I'm worried she's right but I can't quit work early just to give her a lift and can't afford to give her taxi money all the time.

I'm gonna assume you aren't trolling.

You should really consider pimping out your girlfriend. You could be getting paid and she's already fucking around for free. Kinda solves the helping your gf out by giving her money thing.

Yeah man, this is gonna be an ongoing thing. She didn't even take a slow approach she just went straight to feeling entitled to your money. If you can keep your pride while knowing you're in love with a mooch and will be used it's up to you. If it was me my pride would be taking hits and my irritability would climb until I was miserable.

Too far, stick to something more believable, like she asked you for money to help out a family member in need or something like that

Do you know relationships? Ive seen similar things all the time. People get mad around here when their gf/bf won't give them money for weed.
