Would you date someone who doesn’t work?

sarabee1995 · 26-30, F
Hmmm... Work is not the important thing, so sure, but they would need to have a purpose in their life. Something that gets them up in the morning and motivates their day.

It depends on the situation. A friend of mine wants to date, but he quit his job and has no aspirations to do anything with his life. I don’t want to be responsible to take care of a man who sits at home and plays video games. But to be honest, that’s just one thing on a list of reasons why I don’t want to date him.

i fear i usually do lol
can he afford to take me to 5* restaurants

Yeah, I wouldn't mind that at all. Probably would be easier to relate to them than someone who's in a career that's dissimilar to mine.

It would depend on the reason .

No not in today's society, no.

Yes you fall in love with the person ,so you meet someone you really like then they tell you they don't work what's that got to do with love .

Depends on the reason and circumstances. But yes, definitely would if they are not just lazy ass.

Well, the older I get the more chance that will be the case as everyone starts to retire 😆
meggie · F
No. Was married to someone like that and never had any money

Sure, as long as they have ambition and direction

I wouldn't date anyone right now.
Depends. If they can work but prefer welfare.....no. If they can't work because of something temporary like pregnancy, injury, being new to town and looking for work but haven't found anything yet.......or have money and don't need to work..........sure.

How hilarious would it be if a woman had a jobless live-in boyfriend who sold her stuff at the pawn shop because he needed to pay for his Onlyfans subscription?
my wife dated me and I don’t work. I’d have understood if she didn’t, though. I’m not allowed to work because of my issues.
Yes... It's a rough world out there for some of us and we may not be able to work for medical reasons.
wildbill83 · 36-40, M
sure, if she's the hot daughter of a billionaire and doesn't need to work...

does that count? 🤔

Very broad question. They could be so successful that they no longer had to work a day in their life.

It would be weird for me now, but at one point, I married someone who did not work. We were together for 20 years.

How do they get their money to live? Dividends? Royalties? Ok. A permanent charity case? No.
LemonWorld · 36-40, F
Well what would they be doing? They need to be doing something and have goals
Nevaeh0081 · 36-40, F
If he was willing to work on that, then yes.

Might be a medical issue.
MarineBob · 56-60, M
No,not right now as there are plenty of jobs available
KiwiBird · 36-40, F
If they are going to be lazy in bed.....then No!!!
UnlikeableAndy · 36-40, M
Maybe. But currently don’t date anybody
Not unless they’re medically disabled
I do now. So yeah

Right now I am not working because of my health issues and I don’t know if I will ever return.

I am still being paid and my income is the same. I am not lazy either 🤷🏼‍♀️. So yes I would.

I grew up in my teens not wanting to date anyone when i had periods of unemployment - believing they wouldn't want to be with me if i was unemployed - but you may find a partner that doesn't matter about those things ... so all those opportunities i've missed for seeking love/a partner
