Is it normal that my serious girlfriend gets very mad every time i work?

We're in college full time so I don't work much. I work a 9 hour shift once a week and 2 short ones. We get in an argument the night before the 9 hour shift every week. She gets very upset, mad, frustrated and questions our relationship. It's a very serious relationship, yet once a week, she questions it because we can't be together for those 9 hours.

    seriously, get a mature girlfriend, or better yet, print and show her our responses.

    why isn't your girlfriend working? if she is in college, then she can work too.

    she sounds like a spoiled girl.

      Students should learn, not work.
      Why should they need the money for, since education is free?

    Women are clingy as hell. When I talk to gfs on phone from work, present gf or past, I can hear the anger in the voice, when I say I have to get back to work.

    She sound incredibly immature. What if you two got married or had a kid, imagine how she would react.

    My girlfriend is clingy but she encourages me to work (and she also does before someone pulls the gold digger move), explain to your girlfriend that if she wants you to quit the 9 hour shift you will under the condition she gets off of her lazy ass and gets to work as well, what she's doing to you and your relationship is unhealthy and it'll end up killing you inside, I'd rather spend time with my loved on more than work, we all would, but we just can't, it isn't how it works.

    Doesn't she also have a life of her own? Funny thing is once you graduate and get your degree she'll probably be complaining about the exact opposite. But I guess that shows you she isn't a gold digger.

    She is just scared to lose you. She just wants more time with you. Explain to her that their isn't another woman at work. She is frustrated because she feels as if you are socializing with other women at work and will leave her. Insecure? Trust me I know. Just explain to her that their is only her and that you are trying to make your future better for the both of you. Tell her to chill her tits down. (:

    Omg, she needs to realise you're working to make money! I hate people who get mad at their partner for working "too much." WTF? Imagine when there's no work left, and you're unemployed without any money. Now that would suck. So I say work while you're young, and make as much money as you can 'cause you never know when it will all be gone someday.

    For her to get mad because you have work once a week sounds like she has control issues. And for her to question your relationship just for that maybe you might want to think if you should even be in a serious relationship with someone like that

    stop trying to please a woman, except maybe in bedroom, you should not give a fck about how she feels.

    She just wants to spend all the time she has with you... I am like that too, I miss my husband when he is not here and love every minute we are together... If you were mine, I'd be the same as your gf... I think it's Completely Normal!!!
