is this question for real?

Certainly not, unless the girl was turned on by shiftless bastards who have appeared on Ricki Lake.

if you're for real then you're a waster and no self respecting girl would touch you with a barge pole.

When I first read the question, I didn't realize you meant men who don't want to work. I would date a man who was currently between jobs as long as I was sure he was earnestly looking for one and had potential for finding one and didn't plan to just find a woman to leach off of. But unless the man who didn't want to work didn't financially need to work, then no, I would not get involved with a leach.

unreal, i have not worked in some time, but would love to go back to work, nothing like doing an honest days work, any man that does not want to work is a LOSER!!!!!

Yeah I agree. A man who doesn't want to work is just as much of a loser as a woman who doesn't.

no self-respecting girl would go out with a guy who does not want to work, just sit around and live of society or of her money.

Hey, daniel, is this about you? I thought you had a job.

Post 10 by starfly (99956) on Thursday, 29-Jun-2006 21:35:58

this is not about me. I have a job. I love my job. Just was intrested.

Post 11 by mysticrain (Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature.) on Thursday, 29-Jun-2006 22:20:04

ah ok, that's what I thought. Because the last time we talked, you seemed really happy with the job. Glad to hear it's still going well. smile

If he was going to take care of the children and do a lot of the house chores instead, maybe I wouldn't mind *smile*. There are very few guys like that though; my dad doesn't have a real job and won't do college classes or work for anyone, although he did have a regular job until somewhere in his 30's (he's in his early 50's now), although part of it may have to do with some health problems he has but he still sometimes helps with fixing peoples' yard equipment. But yeah, he usually cooks and cleans and my mom goes to college and wants to reenter the workforce soon. (Both had a job until in their 30's though but had to quit because of someproblems resulting from their job.) Anyway, so if my husband wouldn't work I'd expect him to take care of things around the house, however I'd much more prefer that he did want and have a job because to me that would say he expects to get somewhere in his life. Just my opinion. *smile*

There's a quote from Bob Dylan that i like: "A man is a success if he gets up in the morning, goes to bed at night, and in between he does what he wants to do." Fortunately, my future career lets me do exactly that.

I like what I see so far. Keep posting.

Post 16 by firebolt (Veteran Zoner) on Friday, 30-Jun-2006 11:39:04

Not much more to say really. I think all those who posted agree that a man who wants to live off welfair or his partner is a total loser. I believe a woman who expects her guy to bring the only source of income is just as much a loser. I'm not talking about a situation where people are looking for a job and can't find one. That happens a lot these days. I just don't like those who enjoy sitting on their butt all day doing nothing and getting money from the state while others are working their asses off. Not fair! I'd never get seriously involved with such a person.

post 16 cheers! also if the guy is getting training to get a job that takes up allot of his time, i would understand that too but once out if the skills are waisted that would really suck. who wants a bum if you want that just go to your nearest city and bring home a guy off the streets.

I don't expect my woman to have a job. Her full time job will be taking care of me in the manner I expect. I should always have clean clothes, breakfast should be prepaired for me in the morning, dinner should be ready when I get home, the lawn should always be cut, the sheets should always be clean, etc etc.

Lol hello 1920's! :)

Post 20 by ItsJustBabyT (the price is WRONG, bitch!) on Wednesday, 05-Jul-2006 3:05:12

Jared, darling, grow up. *smiles* Anyway, I wouldn't mind if my guy didn't have a job because he was in between jobs or if he was in training for another job. However if he was completely okay sitting around doing nothing, collecting government checks, uh no I'm not living like that. What I want to do is not exactly going ot pay for the bills and that's not the life I want to have. However, if I were going ot make enough money, and he agreed to be Mr. Mom, then okay I'd do that. And I would also consider being a stay at home mom, if my husband was okay with that. In fact, I think I'd like to be a stay at home mom for the first few years of my children's lives. So Jared, I guess you get your wish...for at least 5 years or so lol!!!

I would expect any man that I dated to work or be looking for a job in ernist. Being a student does count as a job in my mind, also. As for being a stay-at-home mom, I don't think I could ever be happy doing just that. I might do so until all of my children were at least a year of age, but aside from that I'd attempt to hold down a steady job. I would be understanding if my man was between jobs, still in school or seeking employment, but no dead-beats for me. Even if the man were wealthy I'd expect him to work or be involved in some hobby or venture and invest him self with determination and perpose. I can't stand those who don't excersize their minds and intelects on a regular basis and I certainly couldn't see my self with someone like that.

Post 22 by jessmonsilva (Taking over the boards, one topic at a time.) on Monday, 27-Nov-2006 16:44:07

god. I could never be a stay at home mom! Oy, no! I'm glad I am training now to do something with my life soon.

Post 23 by Puggle (I love my life!) on Tuesday, 28-Nov-2006 5:18:07

I won't be a stay at home, my kids will just have to come everywhere with me. as for the job thing, I wouldn't want a bloke who doesn't want to work, but that';s cause of how carer oriantated I am. I like to grow and learn and progress forward so watna guy who's coming with me, or taking me for the ride.

Bairfoot and Pregnant, that's what my woman's gonna be.

Post 25 by wildebrew (We promised the world we'd tame it, what were we hoping for?) on Tuesday, 28-Nov-2006 21:33:36

42.8 .. that's how many women want a man without a job, + or minus 3%

Post 26 by DancingAfterDark (I just keep on posting!) on Tuesday, 28-Nov-2006 22:47:10

Oh Jared, please can I marry you? that's exactly what I aspire to be.

Wasn't there a song that went something like "Get your biscuits in the oven and your buns in the bed." I think it was by Kinky Friedman who did a lot of twisted songs like that.

Post 28 by Jess227 on Wednesday, 29-Nov-2006 0:01:51

*laughs* hell no. I date a guy, he must find work. Why? Because my first ex didn't have a job. At that time alot of teens who were seniors or a grade below had jobs or were looking for work. My ex boyfriend was too lazy to find work and his SSI income wasn't all that great as both parents worked. And his parents would only allow him to take out so much while at camp a week - in other words he lived off of me and never, ever paid me back or at least treated me to something to thank me. My second ex was between jobs - it wasn't his fault that his workplace had a shooting and they lost business because of that - either people left or like him laid off. After that I said "Guy must have work. Work one or two jobs to show that he can be financially independant and not rely on me.

The one guy I had a crush on out here who's really religious well - he wasn't too happy to hear me say "Get a job or ask your parents for money." When you are taken advantage of like that and used for the longest time well, it does get old. And I did try to tell PD that he has to finish school and find work. The only men who I know who can support themselves (sort of) is my guy James who works like hell making ends meet and Blind Bandit whom I've known BB for a few years now.

I seriously and honestly don't think any girl would date let alone marry someone who doesn't have a job. It depends on who you are - if you the woman can support yourself great. But if you cannot support yourself and your spouse/significant other then there is going to be problems down the road. I tried to support my ex and I when we were at camp in Baltimore. It was a strain on our relationship. When we argued and I needed space, he only made things right because he knew in his mind if he didn't have me, he had little money and little support to survive in such a large city.

So find someone who'll work trust me it happened to me it'll happen to just about anyone.

Post 31 by Damia (I'm oppinionated deal with it.) on Thursday, 30-Nov-2006 18:35:36

Lol Candi, are we gonna have to have a catfight in the middle of a parking lot? Or out in front of our trailers?

Jared, I can cook reasonably well, and if it's not up to your standards, I will improve. Good enough?

Post 33 by The Roman Battle Mask (Making great use of my Employer's time.) on Friday, 01-Dec-2006 5:33:13

Yes chelsie, as long as you can cook meet with out turning it into blacken charred remains I'm happy. So figure shotgun wedding on the fourth out in back of my traylor? Your family can bring the keg of beer, myne will have the hog rosting.

Post 34 by SensuallyNaturallyLiving4Today (LivingLifeAndLovingItToo) on Monday, 04-Dec-2006 15:58:41

That, is positively barbaric. Well, I'm pretty and witty enough for the one I'm with so, fuck off. Girls, you can have him, as he reminds me of something I scraped off of the bottem of my shoe earlier today.
