Reply To: Advice if I (23F) end my friendship with 25M with whom I emotionally cheated

Confused Girlie —

You are way too hard on yourself. All I see is a tendency to stay in bad relationships for too long a time, after it’s clearly over. You kindof emotionally cheated in a way which didn’t really seem like emotional cheating at the time? Forgive yourself.

As for online dude, anyone can call themselves an entrepreneur. I had a paper route as a kid and the newspaper considered all of us to be self-employed contractors, responsible for the default of any customers the paper accepted a subscription from, who then chose to stiff us. I guess I was a young entrepreneur.

You said yourself, this guy displays no drive, which makes him a bad bet as a successful entrepreneur. Also, business schools love real entrepreneurs, so why would he need your help to get into business school? Sounds like he’s not the real deal. And… he pushed you to invest money you can’t spare into his company. Are you certain he isn’t just scamming you? Curious that someone who tries to convince you that academics are worthless and you’re too focused on your education wants into the business school you are attending.
