Bad Boyfriend Job

A Bad Boyfriend Job is when your job treats you horribly, pays you horribly or even is just unhealthy for you but you keep it because it pays and you have not found another job to take its place.

You might even reason with yourself to say you are staying in this job for one reason or another but in reality, you are stuck until you find other employ or quit the job, usually citing sanity reasons.

Rick was humiliated every Saturday at his job because of his weight but it was a Bad Boyfriend Job and he needed the money. Knowing this, it made things better for a little while.

After explaining my job to my therapist, she said to leave as soon as possible. It was a Bad Boyfriend job that had gone toxic.
