I have dated my girl for the past 18 months and we have been clear since day one that we were gonna end up together. However, the time we met coincided with the moment I was taking control of my life in terms of starting out a business.
Now, before I began the running of the office, she said that she knows for sure that this will affect our relationship badly. I understand that she might be right , but I try my best to be there for her.
Soon after the business started, I got into some bad debt and the pressure has been weighing up on me and to be fair, I seem to be too focused on solving that issue. We therefore started having problems of me not having enough time for here, she complained about me not caring for her needs. I have never been in dire financial situation Iike this before.
She checks on my phone to see who I’m chatting with on WhatsApp, now the truth is that I had some relationships in the past. But those were in the past. Then she uses those chats on my phone, which she accesses behind my back to judge me.
I’m not saying I’m perfect, but my life has really turned around in the past one year since the business. To make things better and make her feel secured, I involved her as a team member in the business.
Now she says to me that I am self centered and called me all sorts of names. The most heartbreaking thing is that she asked me to think about “what the hell I have ever done for her in my life before”

Hi,
It’s not a bad idea to bring your girl friend on your team, I just hope she’s also bringing professional expertise or the skill needed to support a growing business.
If she asked what you’ve ever done for her, I guess you need to ask back ” what exactly do you want me to do for you “?
Or what are your expectations of me ?
You both sit down and talk things over in a matured manner.
I that wise , you both can come on the same page.
