She used to be great, but she's always been a tee-bit boring. She doesn't really have any hobbies besides painting, which she'll do MAYBE 1 every month or so. Other than that, it feels like her hobby is Me, in which she constantly wants to be around me and if I don't respond the way she likes, she sends me on a huge guilt trip because I like alone time.
(I'm an only child with a single mother, so growing up, it was basically me, myself, and I. Mom worked a lot, and when she got home she'd go to sleep. So I occupied my time with videogames/art/and making music. I need my alone time, and being crowded everyday makes me so horribly upset, I contemplate running away every now and then)
Fast forward to now, she left her 50 hour a week job to "focus" on school. (She goes 1 day a week, 3 hour session). She insist she can't work full time because she needs to "study" (maybe for a total of 6 hours a week)
She saves her entire check and expects me to dump 1/3rd of my paycheck into a "honeymoon" savings. It's killing me to do this every week, I barely have enough for us, my hobbies, and my personal savings.
She works a total of 4 days a month. She doesn't really need money because she has 0 hobbies, 0 interest, and 0 friends.
Lately, I come (to her still sleeping 14 hours total) and nothings done around the house. She only does dishes and cleaning on HER days which is every other day. I was fine doing my part when she was working full time, but now she sleeps around the house doing nothing, and the second I get home, she'll pounce on me to "Take out the trash, do the dishes, feed the cats, throw the wash in the drier and fold them, because it's YOUR day to do it!"
I've been recently having a tough time getting rid of these negative thoughts. I just wanna leave. I can't help but to hate her out of pure jealously, because she gets to stay home all the time, wake up at any hour she wants, do whatever she wants. Meanwhile while I have to wake up at 5:30am and won't get home till 4/4:30pm.
She's not even entirely sure she wants to do her career path anymore and says if she fails her semester again, shes gonna drop out. She has no intention of working more, or picking up more hours. The more I talk to her about it, the more she insist "she'll talk to the manager to get more work". After a week of waiting, she proudly announces she got ONE extra day this month for a 4 hour shift.
tl;dr Fiance of 4 1/2 years is lazy, never works, and is very boring.

I'm not saying you shouldn't dump her, but you've introduced your situation to a very biased group of dudes and you're really only going to get one kind of answer here.
And what answer would you give him?

Absolutely. If she's like this now, then putting a ring on it will only make matters worse.
