Don't let your insecurity get the better of you.
The key word is "Future".
Do you have a sister ?
If yes, ask yourself, what kind of man would you like to see your
sister with ?
What kind of future would you like your sister to have with this
man ?
Do you prefer she marries a successful man ? or a bum that takes
money from his parents ?
Which woman don't want a successful husband ?
Which woman don't want a man who can provide her a good life
?
There is nothing wrong when your girl just want to encourage you to
be a better man. She should, and she is not looking down on you.
She is just encouraging you.
In fact, you should take heart that she thinks of a future WITH
YOU.
What you need to do is to assure her.
" You are a smart, attractive and wonderful girl, and you deserve
to lead a good life. I will do my very best to make sure you are
well taken care of in the future."
" Right now, you may be earning more than me. But I will make sure
I earn much more than you in the future, so you will never have to
worry about our financial security."
Now, in your current situation, it is only temporary.
If she tells you that you should try to get some work.
Tell her, you will after you have recovered.
Action speaks louder than words. So mean what you say, and do what
you say.
