What I meant was is that if her behavior is consistent with someone who society deems is lazy then that means she is lazy. If somebody cuts off his own balls because he thinks that they lead to impure thoughts. He can think he is an "honest" man but society (and me and you) would consider him crazy. Just as someone can think they are being "discerning" but society views a specific behavior as cheap. Insight into your own behavior and motives is shitty. Most assholes don't know they are assholes. Most selfish bastards don't know they are selfish bastards. And if they do they color it in their own minds in a better way. Like a truly cheap person might believe they are discerning. Your own view of your girlfriend is colored too, because you have special, magical feelings called "love" toward her that may cloud your judgment.
I don't really think your girlfriend is a "cheap, lazy whore." Like you said I've never met her. I don't know any of her specific behaviors or habits. I was just trying to razzle your tazzle and thought you'd see that. (btw i can think of quite a few other qualities worse than being lazy or cheap)
but anyhow your girlfriend may have many wonderful hobbies that she spend her time doing and not be lazy at all. However if she leads a very sedentary lifestyle and chooses not to work for a living she is by definition lazy. The only way that you are not lazy, is to separate yourself from society. But since this is undesirable or impossible, you have accept that you are lazy and deal with people frowning on your laziness. cliche alert!: you can't have your cake and it too. if you choose not to work you may be living a freethinking lifestyle, but it is a lazy freethinking lifestyle
