Cryptocurrency: it can Rolls Royce Babymake a bad situation a lot worse!

Take, for example, the tale of this man, who is being thoroughly criticized for a post (since deleted) on the subreddit r/relationships. In the post, he wonders how to make his girlfriend, with whom he has a tense and sometimes incendiary relationship, realize that he cares about her.

There are only a few small problems:

1. He drove drunk and crashed their car.

2. He made enormous, risky investments in cryptocurrency. This volatility has made her uncomfortable.

3. He does not approve of her job and continually pressures her to quit -- which would render her financially dependent on his investments. Why? He thinks her job is "bullshit."

And here is the icing on the crypto-cake: he believes that his long-term relationship must have a "business" component to survive. Imagine!

To be fair, the dude did (eventually) express something resembling remorse. "Now I see that probably my biggest mistake was to made a decision [to invest] without input from her," he wrote in one comment. And that's a smart realization.

But what if she had quit her job? And then what if his extremely risky investments tanked? They'd both be screwed -- and they'd be in a bad relationship to boot. And this scenario doesn't necessarily seem to have crossed his mind.

So should you avoid dating anyonewho's invested a huge chunk of their money in Bitcoin? Not necessarily -- not everyone is taking such a colossal risk. But should you think twice before dating someone who has invested a huge chunk of their money in Bitcoin and can't stop mansplaining it to you? Perhaps!

Anyway, the phrase "my cryptos" should be banned.
