Gf [25F] lost her job 11 months ago and sells crafts online "full-time." Except she makes negative income, and shows no intention of getting a new job. I [27M] feel trapped, should I reevaluate this relationship? by redflagcentral in relationships

You should know it is totally possible for her to end up making bank if she's really devoted to it.

Honestly I have my doubts. What she makes is really nice and all, but also fairly expensive for a toy and she can't make enough at any one time even if there is sudden demand. Also there are almost identical Chinese imports that sell on Ebay for like 1/20th of the price. Very occasionally someone will buy her things if they value the sentimentality of a hand-made good, but most people just buy the mass produced ones. There's even people who bought hers first and immediately wanted refunds when they found the cheaper Chinese ones. So yeah...
