So I’ve been seeing this girl for a few weeks now that I'm really into and things are going well. The issues are that she has a 5 year old daughter and also does topless waitressing on the weekends. I’m really not sure what I should do cause she’s really into me as well. Whenever she cancels plans or prioritises her other job it gets me into a really depressed mood. I’m really not sure what I should do because if it doesn’t work out I’m not sure how I’m going to handle it. I have lots of family stuff going on as well which doesn’t help.

Hi Jarred,
I guess it would help to think about it in other ways. Do you get along with her daughter?
As for the job that she has, try to keep reminding yourself that she's doing this job just as a way of making money which is something we all need. Since you say that she sometimes prioritizes this job, is that what makes you worried? That would be very understandable. As well as cancelling plans a lot would be worrying. Have you tried to talk to her about this and if so, what did she say?
Does she priorities her job sometimes because she's trying to make money or do you think there could be something else there?

I actually haven’t met her daughter yet she said she won’t introduce her to me until we’ve been together for a while. I try to remind myself that it’s just a job. It’s just that I don’t get to see her much as it is and when she takes up work over seeing me it just sucks. I haven’t spoken to her about that yet. She prioritises it to make money which I guess is understandable just sucks.
