Look if i was in your position, I would give her the boot, let her go get her family guy.

I see these things too often man. You think its easy being a boss and getting there. You have to make sacrifices and tough decisions to get to where you want to get man.

Get rid of burdens if you have the power to

Man you have 2 big problems.

Neither has this easy fix you are looking for.

All you are doing is sitting on your hands and shrugging. What is that?

Relationships, business, it seems any excuse will do to let it all blow up.

How about you just succeed instead.
Figure out what it takes, and make magic happen.

Its pathetic to sit around choosing if you wanna cut off an arm or a leg.


You think that is air you are breathing?

IF YOU DON'T FIGHT FOR WHAT MATTERS, WHAT MAKES YOU THINK YOU ARE ENTITLED TO SOMEONE MAKING IT HAPPEN FOR YOU


If you take the red pill, don't whinge and complain and pass the buck, or you will get f#cked harder than you can imagine

This is true too, but you have a ton of debt and its time you got a handle on all the loose ends of this situation!
Be positive but get stuff done

Only wantreprenuers blame external circumstance. Pick your game up. Thats all your gf wants. You are just being too p#ssy to fix this and pushing it on her.

Fix it.

Those big mountains you build in your mind, they're blocking the view. The past is the past. It doesn't exist now. Nothing you can do about the mistakes. The future isn't here yet. Right now is all you got to create something from nothing. Debt's there, but why worry and stare at it, you're wasting your energy on the mess instead of creating something from nothing. For women I'm surprised she's still there. I don't know to many women that wait 9 years to get married and have kids. Usually they're in a hurry, and want to be like married now. My guess is she may be tired of waiting. Your biological clock runs out some point. Your patience runs out after 9 years. She probably has a bunch of people saying, he'll never do it, get rid of you. lol Just telling you what I usually hear from women. Yes, sounds like your procrastinating in all flavors of responsibilities. Fear of everything in front of you because you're staring at the problems of the past and not looking at solutions right now.

Honestly, if I was you I would probably stick with it. If you where able to make it a profitable company at one point you can probably do it again- Just work your a$$ off, fine tune your business, figure out what isn't working, fix it and then try to make a profit again.

From a females perspective (or at least my view on it) as far as your girlfriend goes, I think that you should end things....of course this is purely based on what you provided in this post, but from what i read it doesn't seem like you want kids and it doesn't seem like you really want to get married. I wouldn't want to have to pressure my boyfriend into proposing, and I definitely wouldn't want to pressure my husband into having kids. Kids and marriage are huge life changing decisions and if you aren't 100% ready for it, don't do it.
