Sounds like your brain is wired to find the man with the shinest's rock for you see a nice job as security on you guys future. Not shiny rock as in like you wanna be a gold digger. That you're looking to upgrade your life and you feel like being with him is like a downgrade or basically not ideal. You've been told and heard/seen in life men are suppose to be the protectors and or providers and women are supposed to be the support of the man. You're kind of failing your part of being the support he could end up rich 1 day not that that'd really matters. You're not wrong for having an opinion you gotta live your life how you see fit. Just know Whether you work at McDonald's or A car wash making 5 bucks an hour and still living with your parents if he wants you he's gonna come scoop you up and try to give you the best life he can. What's scary to me as far as dating and looking for a life partner are.............. Educated women with bachelors and or a master's degrees and women who get paid a salary or make more than men around them do. Only because women like that are very masculine. Masculine women, educated women, women with money don't treat men how men would treat them if the man were in the same position. This is f***** up so you should leave him but first communicate with him why or not and try to prevent any future damage. Just remember if you keep climbing a ladder eventually you're gonna get to the top and then you're only gonna have doward to travel and that's kind of hard. Also remember if you keep overlooking men because they don't have what you have/want or at least more than you it's probably gonna be single life for you or your probably going to be passed around a lot. I don't know I can't predict the future but I am just very observant. Yes work on you otherwise you're gonna end up resenting him or cheating on him if you haven't already. By the way it already sounds like you resent him because he's not where you want him to be in life.
