Given this economy and the things that are happening. Is a prospective mate not going to be considerd by you if:

they loses there job and ends up having to take one of considerably less status and pay?

how about if they loose there place of residence?

jmo...But it really should not matter if someone, really likes you..
Everybody, I'm sure has had it tough at some point in there life.

If a woman is only interested in what you drive or where you live or how much money you make...she is not worth having anyway...

I totaly agree, if the wraping paper is all you care for in a package then just keep window shoping.

however I realy wonder what others opinions on this is.

I would have an issue dating someone that has no place to live. Tho I am not out for money, I don't want to support him financially if we are just in the "getting to know each other / dating phase". If I am in a serious relationship and he lost his job, took a pay cut, or some kind of financial disaster happened... I would step up to the plate and help him wherever possible. As long as he is a worker, trying to find a job, takes almost any job just to help pay the bills, I am totally on his side.

yes it would be dificult dateing someone who lives in there car or something. It would be awkward to hang out drop them off at the park I guess. I would hope to be the kind of person who will always help those willing to help themselfs first.

I agree,i will not date someone who does not have a work history,backround.Alot of people are loseing thier jobs,homes,and so on.due too no fault of thier own?I would think its about who you are and,what you do and try to do?that is important.

as long as they get back out there and gets a job that shouldnt matter.



I am 25 when I was 21 and 23 I had to move back in with my mom for some months,I didnt do it cause I wanted to I did it cause I had to.there are also tons of others who have to.

so that also shouldnt matter as long as there actaully trying to get on there feet again.

That's exactly what I mean. You have to be putting in the effort. Sometimes things are out of your control. Company shuts down, lay offs, etc etc. It's the people who don't put any effort in and expect things handed to them that piss me off.

I dated a guy before that lived with his parents. He always worked tho. But he was on the road so much there was just no point in him paying for a seperate place. This seemed reasonable to me. There's nothing wrong with falling back on your folks. I've had to do it before. As long as you pick yourself back up again.
