Extremely hypocritical as always. If this were the other way around women would be saying he should support her not telling him she's a total loser and she should go away.

Not in today's world. I see you are still true to form.

Yes, in today's world. A man not acquiesce to every woman's demand it viewed as a horrible person, but a woman that doesn't is a horrible person and a bad man.
Before you know it, you will feel obligated to help him and he'll feel like you owe it to him because you are in a relationship. Then you'll feel guilty about asking him to pay you back and eventually you will either run out of money and he'll find someone else to take care of him, or you will get sick of paying, dump him, and have little left of your savings. Does not sound fun to me.
This. You might want to reconsider the relationship if he continues to ask you for money, chances are he cannot gives you security and a stable relationship.
You need to decide if you want to be the "breadwinner" of the couple. It's perfectly okay to do so, but you have to DECIDE you do. It would be unusual mostly from the standpoint that he's not a SAHF...are you willing to take sole responsibility for making the house payment and to pay all the bills? Because any money he makes will likely only be incidental....if he does better than that, fantastic but certainly don't ever count on his income for anything.
Do NOT dump any of your money in his business. You can let him live with you and feed him but he has to finance his OWN ventures. Above all, do NOT marry him unless you want to take on all his debt and be responsible for it. If you are looking for marriage, keep this in mind above all.

Nope - if I was a guy with a woman like that I'd do the same thing. After all, most men, though they expect their woman to work don't have high hopes that they'll earn much of anything meaningful! I mean, if they do then that's great but men rarely COUNT on women for income. That's exactly what I'm advising for her. To just accept that he'll not amount to much financially but don't go into debt over him.

Yep, is very true. I learned this acronym on this board yesterday, I now see the merit: MGTOW
Usually if a new business fails, it fails in the first 2 years. He is still at it 4 years later. One of my favorite sayings in business comes from Biz Stone, the guy who founded Twitter. "Timing, perseverance, and 10 years of trying will eventually make you look like an overnight success."
It's the truth. Success doesn't happen overnight, and I would admire a man who stays true to his dream and is willing to make sacrifices and struggle through tough times to make it come true. If he is dedicated to his business, he will probably be the same way in a relationship and be willing to stay through tough times in a relationship, too.
