Can a unemployed man/woman find love or is every body scared/put off by it ?

First off, if they are on Medical, no problem.
But if they are truly trying to find work, to better their situation, I can't see why it would be an issue.

Wouldnt bother me ,but it Seems to make women run a mile ,when i tell them ,or they do end up reading my profile ,thanks for replying

The status of 'unemployed',
can add a level of difficulty, that isn't
easily surmounted.

But, might not make it entirely impossible.

Tell them you quit working because you needed more time to manage your wealth, and watch them racing back

Obvious really ,yes I would run 100 miles unless the unemployed person did not need to work and was financially secure ,
I am unemployed myself and not done a stroke for 10 years ,I have retired

Lying probably is NOT the best way to start a relationship.

Try not thinking your honesty is driving away potential matches.
Think of it as your honesty is removing the shallow prospects allowing you to focus on a smaller pool of more worthy candidates.

yup this ^^^^^

not having a job shouldn't scare off potential romance.

shared checking accounts yes, romance no.

In a way it depends on the how and what. But in general I'm not really up for getting involved with someone who is unemployed UNLESS they are doing well and e.g. retired.
Not because I'm after money, but I'm not after a crap life either.

I myself am also unemployed due to physical problem (neck injury). For some this can be a problem, for instance if they want to have expensive outings, far away holidays etc. as that is currently not possible for me.
I do feel and think it is different for a man as generally speaking a man's self-esteem hinges on his status, a woman's not so much (unless she's mostly masculine energy). We derive our self-esteem from other things.
WHy that is important... more often unemployed men get depressed or feel like they're not good enough, unable to provide & protect etc.
I as a woman am not bothered by it that way, although having more money would be really nice of course.
That's why I am working on my own thing which I eventually hope to launch and make a good living with.

Maybe for shallow-minded deluded fools it does.

That's like saying "generally, a woman's self-esteem hinges on her beauty"



There is some truth to this depending on the man's personal values and current responsibilities.
However it equally transfers to women possessing similar values and responsibilities.

Depression tries to destroy healthy self-esteem. It is not gender specific.
Depression feeds on low self-esteem.

Unemployment for duration can be depressing due to rejection and needs not being filled. The depression then eats at one's self-esteem creating more depression which affects other aspects of one's life.
With strong healthy self-esteem, depression starves out.
Its not gender specific.

It would depend on why they are unemployed, what their doing about it, and if they have other sources of income to take care of their own personal needs... such as food and shelter.

It has nothing to do with shallow-minded deluded fools.
It's knowing your psychology and masculine & feminine dynamics, which is also psychology and some other science stuff, I believe neurosociology. Oh, and biology.
I'm not interested in those science, I'm interested in the masculine & feminine and as such have extensively studied this for at least 8 years now, various sources from various scientific viewpoints.
The healthy masculine gets his sense of worth from status, and goes all the way back to ancient times when men hunted. In those days the best hunter, warrior, etc, held the most prestige in the village. It's also related -from the same primal thing- with sports and competitiveness.

Women on the other hand do NOT get more self-worth from status and so on, we get it from oneness and togetherness with other women. Provided these women are also in their feminine energy, not masculine as then you get competition among women which is soul destroying to us.
So for us it's sisterhood, which gives us a huge dose of oxytocine, so it's very relaxing, bonding, and makes us feel worthy, accepted etc. For men it's status, and so on that does it.
That has nothing to do with confidence or being a deluded fool. This is sheer psychology, primal instinct and how human beings are wired, how and when our hormones get triggered and which ones.

This makes sense.
Might I add it also depends upon their attitude towards life in general.

You can be unemployed and your world crumbles or
you can be unemployed and it is a temporary condition not effecting your general contentment with life.

There are people attracted to self-defeated people.
These people have a need to raise people up.
However, when the job is done, they often dissappear in search of another needy soul to save.

Anything is possible not always probable.

Some women fall in love with poor jobless men.

Yes, attitude towards life in general would actually be more of a deciding factor than whether they are employed or not. I would consider dating someone unemployed who has a great attitude towards life over someone who was a millionaire who had a crappy attitude towards life.

Have you considered redoing your profile or asking for profile advice in the "rate my profile" forum. I have a feeling it's more your profile that is off putting than the fact that you're unemployed.

Based on the fact that you've had kidney operations, it makes sense that you're not working. Maybe brightening up your profile a bit might help turn things around for you?

No offense is intended...
While I do understand your passion for your trade I do not believe it is as strong as many believe it is.
I don't dismiss it entirely but I place more value on purpose driven self-control and the reality that self-control yields.

A mentalist can tell you your future because he pays attention to details.
He knows you because he pays attention to details.
When a fortune teller tells you your future it sets your mind to form associations you may not have seen. Suddenly, you think they knew your fortune.
When predictions are made and someone considers their life experiences they focus on those aspects and believe the prediction has merit.
"You described me perfectly, you must have a special gift"

Its like horoscopes.
Horoscopes are based on your birth.
For most people that is the most significant part of their lives.
They read the horoscope and think yeah, this is me perfectly.
However, the most significant part of their lives is really their conception.
That is the moment they became alive.
The horoscope reading is not accurate to the presence of being.
Most people do not know the day of their conception.
There are no conception based horoscopes.
For most people, they were alive for 9 months before they were born.
Why is there's no horoscope for the day you enter puberty?
That is a significant part of life too.

I see reality as cause and effect.
Healthy self-esteem allows us to make wise choices which results in predictable outcomes. Not because we feel good about ourselves but because we can think clearly.
Depression clouds clear thinking.

If you are healthy and unemployed for long duration you are obviously not thinking clearly.
Reality is...
Choose a different profession/job.
Repair your personal presentation.
Choose a different location.
Obviously whatever you are doing is NOT working for you.
Healthy self-esteem gives you the confidence to try something new.

As Sam Kinison once said: "Move to where the food is"
If you can't find work where you are "Move to where the work is"

It can happen. But I think if one is unemployed, the priority should be looking for a job and be able to support oneself, not looking for a date.

Yes a good point ,and many jobs can be done with your head and not your body
