isnt that taking advantage of the other person. I mean theyre going to look past all that in the beginning but after a while, they will grow to resent your inability to pay for dates.
you're running with the idea that don't have a job = don't have money

notwithstanding trust funds, 401Ks, or CDs...

lmao

for what it's worth, I don't think it's sensible to date when unemployed. But going as far as "allowed" or "not allowed" is pushing it.
How about those who always work 24/7 should not be allowed to date.
I think that law naturally takes care of itself don't you 😛

I've also concluded that it's tough out here for a career driven woman...

Men in my world (the 9-5 world) will try to compete with me salary wise and the single men I encounter in my age range can't....which leaves me pissy when they make it an issue.

Those that do things their own way......seem to have no desire to compete with me. I like it that way and am attracted to that.

I would like salary to be a nonissue in my relationships.

I much prefer to be a muse over an adversary 🙂

unless you look at someone and think to yourself "they have a job and will support me while I remain jobless. im not gonna even look for a job" I don't think it should matter, because someone can still be jobless but trying to get a new job.

unless it's mutual agreement, I don't think people should be leeches and live off of someone else or rely on someone else. but it depends on every circumstance I guess. every situation and every person has different reasonings behind their decisions, and let's face it there will always be the one who reasons that they should find someone to live off of. that's just a fact.

I do think your opinion is painted by your venus, dmv. you can equate love to the quantity and quality of material things.

there is nothing wrong with that.

I would not feel comfortable paying all the bills if I lived with someone (unless it was temporary and the time frame agreed upon) nor would I like footing the bill every time we went out.....at some point....if someone wasn't even trying.....I would grow resentful.

I do think that someone who may not have a lot disposable income could still find ways to show love and affection. Evenings in. Walks in the park. Spending quality time. I value those things a little more than *things*.

I can't deal with a man without passion though. There are men out there that do want women to take care of them.....I am not speaking about those men. I would prefer to not cross paths with that scenario.
totally agree. Olive Garden is $ 6.95 for all u can eat soup salad, breadsticks.

i just dont understand why women date bums and then complain that theyre dating bums.

Some men are still bums because us women are NOT putting our foot down and demanding more of them. we're allowing them to not see their true potential.

I can most certainly agree with this.

I'm not seeing the dilemma. The other person can decide to stay home and not date said jobless person. No one is forced to go out and pay for a date.

I find this interested, because once you throw gender into the mix and we're having s different conversation.

Im mainly referring to men since society seems to accept that a woman stays home barefoot and pregnant.

i think people should be focused on getting a job instead of trying to date. people want to go out, do things, etc. that costs money. unless both parties are fine sitting in the house doing nothing but netflix and chill. last time i checked, netflix costs money too. so does the condoms to 'chill'. being a broke ass and dating does not mix.
And what electric company accepts magic beans?

I totally agree with everything you said.
