If you can reasonably get a job soon, tell her that.

If the job hunt is difficult enough that you don't see a job within a few months, just cut your losses and break it off with her.

Ymmv, but anytime women see an out out of the relationship, they're kind of already heading towards it

The best thing to do if your gf threatens to break up with you, is call her bluff. 9/10 times it's an empty threat and she will start crying and apologizing. Stick to your guns for a day or two then come back and renegotiate the terms of your relationship.

That said, you should just get a job - any job - in the meantime. Get something part-time at the grocery store or some shit while you keep looking for what you actually want. Your gf's demands are entirely reasonable, no woman wants a deadbeat.

That also said, I managed to live at my ex's for 5 years with no job, just playing vidya most of the day. The way I did this was by giving her attention when she got home, supporting and loving her and fucking her well. Driving her around (in her car) etc. and we only drifted apart when I stopped giving her so much attention. So maybe you haven't been a very good boyfriend if she is threatening to dump you. I doubt the lack of a job is the biggest issue in the relationship, but it's definitely important.

Start lifting more weights, read books on making money and make more money, get some better game.
If you want a girl the worst thing to do is tell her you need her.

You can get addicted to someone. Never thought it would happen to me but it did this year. It's worse when you're more isolated and don't have other options.

Can't love you at your worst they don't deserve you at your best. You've already done the rational and logical thing of talking it out and explaining your emotions, she chooses to invalidate your feelings and throw logic out the window.

True, OP did admit he knew his field was bullshit and no longer has anything to really offer her. If OP was a real man he would put her in her place instead of letting her control the relationship.

What makes you think that what you studied has anything to do with where you work? Only about 25% of graduates wind up working in the same field as their degrees.

Get a job.

Okay, then get a job or lose her. Simple enough, and I don't need to read any further.

Unless you pay rent together; say, "I accept your offer" then break up
No more ultimatums, man that manipulative, and abusive
She is a girlfriend get another; she is not your wife
