Ladies....Would you date a guy who is unemployed? (177)
I was out of work for about a year (most of 2007), but I had money in the bank to make ends meet the entire time. I still didn't have any dates though during that time, nor since I started working on a big software contract early 2008. It doesn't seem to make much of a difference around here, employed or unemployed I still don't have dates come the weekend. 
Maybe I need a criminal record to be attractive to the gals around this area?

I thought the question was if someone lost their job should they start dating...
Not that they are already in a relationship
Maybe Im confused

Charli15695: True -- do you think knowing a person is umemployed will be a deal breaker?
Yes. I lost one of my jobs 3 weeks ago and it has been stressful. Losing both would have probly out me over the edge. Savings can only last so long and the stress of finding another can trickle over to other aspects of your life.

Charli15695: In this recession - 70% of the people who have lost their jobs are male ... I was wondering how the ladies here would feel about dating a man who is unemployed - perhaps has been for several months - thumps up or thumbs down ....? And for the men...if you are unemployed - would you keep pursuing dates - what would you do to spend less on a date - would you consider letting the woman pay for the day? or would you get creative and look for free/cheap things to do?
I'm unemployed but do get Social Security income... Sooo... I'm still in the game dating women as long as they do not want to marry me

I'm wondering how men searching on Single Sites would feel if a woman posted in her profile that she has been unemployed in CA for 18 months.
I doubt very seriously that this woman would get very much interest. Being unemployed in this economy is a very hard place to be.
Being single and lonely while being unemployed is even harder.

I feel your pain.
But only sometimes, I always try and keep my mind ticking over.
I feel like Steve McQueen in the Great Escape, but I get by.
Keep smiling anyway!

I just wonder...is love only for the financially secure? Are any of us that secure? How many of us are prepared for this type of devastation?
