bluewave33: My best school friend is in love with a man who is refusing all the jobs the firms are offering to him. I think he is a lazy and a good for nothing fellow.
Kattte: Isn’t that just part of maintaing the old stereo-type that many males subscribe to about women in general, especially the tired old cliche about women wanting only a ‘rich’ male so as to provide them with a lifestyle that they can enjoy…well males are now joining in with that generally alleged thinking/ scheming. It was to be expected; just increases the numbers of delusionary people on the loose which will exempt them from ever finding anyone worth connecting with…imo
Because, unfortunately these types do exist.
They are not in the majority, in this country at least, but they exist.
I know one woman who will not work. Yet insists on the big house (with big mortgage), her own car, designer pooch, etc. Her husband has to work all the hours god gives just to keep up the repayments.
Yet her kids are not young enough to need minding, and she has several qualifications, including being a beautician which she could do from home and bring in some earnings, yet doesn't.
I cannot conceive of the idea of this kind of life. Apart from liking financial independence, i would never, ever, put the man i claim to love under such pressure to keep me in a lifestyle than I can't afford.
As I say, most people wouldn't do this to their partner, but some will, and should be avoided at all costs.
