Do I have to break up with my gf because she is unemployed and seems unable to find work?

My gf was fired from her job last year on May 1. Her parents currently support her. She in unable to provide anything in our relationship financially and everything we do I have been paying for. I want to do things.. things like travel… and buy a home and move on with adult life.

She is a good girl from a good family. She is young and smart too. I don’t want to leave her but I’m starting to feel compelled.

It’s late a night here where I am and I’m worried so I thought I’d write down my thoughts and get some ideas about what to do but everything here so far has been solid judgment and assumptions and me. I’m
Just in a difficult situation and don’t know what to do.

@Muthafukajones rather than taking advice in here why not sit down and talk with her ask about retraining for a different type of employment, she maybe having the same thoughts but needs a little push into a new direction far better to talk things out than online forums

@MarieUK I’ve brought that up quite a few times. She doesn’t want to do that.
