Just because they have a job when you meet them, doesn't mean they still will after they move all their shiat into your place.

/kittens are for rescuing, not men.

That's why I'm "self employed".

Ladies...

Ladies?

It is useless to listen to women's words when it comes to relationships. Just look at the kind of guys they are/were dating. Think about your social circle and the guys who get laid all the time. With very little observation is easy to glean what women want and employment status is pretty far down their list of criteria.
 
2012-06-27 11:08:13 AM
My list for the biatches:
1. Must have huge boobs
2. Must go raw
3. Must be willing to get an abortion (i'll pay of course)

I don't care if you have a job, teeth, an education, or children.

"75 Percent of women say they won't date recruit unemployed men. Thanks, Obama"

Now read it this way and ask yourself why it seems almost irrelevant:
"75 Percent of women say they won't love unemployed men. Thanks, Obama"

/employed
// doesn't matter

LarryDan43: But they will cheat on an employed man with an unemployed guy. That's just fun.

This has happened to several guys I know. Unemployed guys are available to meet the cheating lady's needs, in between dropping the kids off at school and her 10:30am dental appointment. Oh and they for some reason always have drugs on-hand.

Most women aren't whores, but those that are really let it shine when their marriages start to fray.

/Happily married
//Happily employed

kid_icarus: That's the same ratio of men who won't date fat chicks, so the injustice balances out.

I guess it will balance out when the unemployment rate catches up to the obesity rate.

vudukungfu: kid_icarus: That's the same ratio of men who won't date fat chicks, so the injustice balances out.

Yeah, while we're being picky, ladies, allow me to list off the disqualifiers you have to hurdle before you get a chance for uncle vudu to pick up your dinner tab:
1) Job. You must have one.
2) Car, yeah, you won your own.
3) No STDs. None.
4) That cell phone? Leave it at home.
5) Oh, and a home? You own your own.
6) You have a toned butt and tummy.
7) You have a sense of humor and don't like to travel.
8) You can cook and like to garden.
9) Eating healthy isn't a fad.
10) Sex is fun.

Not putting anything on the table unless it's matched.
I can match it.

How's that cryathon white whine lifetime channel working out for you?

As I was saying the other day while rubbing my 12-inch-penis with $100,000 dollar bills, I just won't date a liar.

TheLopper: When I was on Match.com, there was a section where you could put your income level and the income level of the type of person you'd like to date. Roughly 75% of the girls on there always put their prospective match's income higher than their own.

"I only make 35,000, but I won't date anyone one who makes less than 60,000."

It struck me as kind of funny in a sad way. I never interacted with those girls.

/went for the ones that didn't fill out the income section



It's called "wishful thinking."

exick: Sybarite: As a great poet once said...

Girls are fakin', goodness sakin'
They want the man who brings home the bacon
Got no money and you got no car
Then you got no women and there you are

Hnnnn, yes, quite. I'm reminded of what another master bard once penned:

Run out of money, and watch your heart break
They'll drop you like a bad habit
cause a brother with money yo, they gotta have it


Now I ain't saying she's a gold-digger,
But she ain't messing with no broke...

Deathfrogg: Nowadays, if a man can't drop $350 or more on the first date, he isn't even considered.

I've never dropped even half of that much on a date, and I've been more than considered, if ya know what I mean. Maybe try being less of a bitter jackass and you won't have to bribe your dates.

2012-06-27 11:26:31 AM
To be fair, "date" and "get knocked up by" are two very different things...

JohnnyCanuck: The other 25% will date you, sure....but only until a better option comes along.

You're pretty close to what I've always hoped for
That's why my love for you is fairly strong
And I swear I'm never gonna leave you, darlin'
At least 'til something better comes along

'Cause you're sort of everything I ever wanted
You're not perfect, but I love you anyhow
You're the woman that I've always dreamed of
Well, not really...but you're good enough for now
No, not really...but you're good enough for now

They want earners. They don't want to let another asshole in their pants in addition to the one God outfitted them with.


I stole my wife from a guy she was living with. He had a sh*tty job. Hung out and got high all day. Ate all her food. Was a loser. I took her away from him. Most women aren't whores, but they really like regular meals and air conditioning. If you can buy a woman regular meals and air conditioning, you can have her as long as you're not a douche. They're not trading sex for those things, they're giving you access to sex for those things. It's a subtle but important distinction.

Does being in a band count? Because I know a few women that date (and support) unemployed losers while they are "getting the CD together". And apparently that process can take months, if not years.

Just like you're not trading regular meals and AC for sex, but rather giving her access to meals and AC for sex, right?

*shrugs* my husband was unemployed when I married him, now he's partially employed doing odd jobs and the like.

To be honest I prefer it this way, I have no domestic skills yet he's a whiz doing all those things I apparently can't do...like maintain a household, run errands, and pay bills. ha!

I make enough to cover the both of us, while his income is spent on entertainment, goodies, and nights out.

I think I'd be miserable if I were married to a guy with a career, cause I'm 99% sure he'd expect me to posses domestic talents while he offers token gestures like, sweeping every once in a while. ppfff fark that.

At leas I get to come home to a clean apartment, freshly washed sheets, and a home-cooked dinner. He's so damn excited to be a stay at home dad when (if) we have kids. I can't begrudge him, I know I'd lose my mind if I had to stay home longer than the prescribed maternity leave.

My husband never came from money, and I wasn't expecting money out of him. However I'm from a relatively wealthy family and have a fairly solid career, so I guess in a way, he got himself a sugar mama. :D

Whatevs, as long as he brings dinner 'n a dickin' on the regular, we're cool.

jennies1897: Never. Again. I always say I won't, I fall for the stupid story and I wind up with an adult child that I hate.

We seem to be living parallel lives. Next time, I am going to be a gold digger, if I can figure out how to do it. There are several not so attractive, not so nice women in my office who always seem to have men who buy them expensive gifts, pay their rent, lease them cars, etc. If I can't find an equal partner in life, I might as well get some bling to make up for all the cash and time I've used up on well-educated, underperforming milquetoasts over the years.

Listen up, mopey man-children! If you don't have a job - find one. If you have one, stop complaining incessantly about the biatch who is out to get you. Cook dinner every once in a while. Make the bed. Ask me how my day was and then don't say "well, at least you have a job" when I occasionally rant about the pathological liar working down the hall. Don't pout when I want to use *my car* instead of letting you drive it every day while I am work. If something breaks in my house - at least tell me so I can call the handyman, instead of letting the problem get worse ("Oh, I didn't realize the water dripping from the ceiling was such a bad thing.")

Hell I didn't even want to date after I got a job because I was still broke. I don't understand wanting to leach off of someone especially a woman. Get your sh*t fixed then you can date.
