I would be open to possibly dating someone who was unemployed if I knew going into the situation, but I wouldn't be open to supporting someone who was unemployed. Also, did you hear this topic from the Michael Baisden show??

I spend most of 2011 unemployed. I just couldn't talk to any females knowing I didn't have a job. That was my first time in life being unemployed, too. I've heard too many women talk bad about dudes without jobs(even though, most of the time, they were actually talking about their BD). Every now and then nature would kick in and I would find myself lying to chicks, but I would just dead it because I didn't feel good about it. Also, I didn't want to have to babysit that lie.
As far as a female, if I was really into her and I didn't have to take care of her, her being unemployed really wouldn't bother me.

When I was unemployed I was mad insecure about it and wouldn't even think about approaching worthwhile females. I actually came across a couple females who seem like they would be willing to look pass it but I still couldn't do it.
On the flip side I know unemployed cats with completely no or d-boy ambitions and they have
chicks

This is a good answer.
Now I ask..what if you've been with them for a long time and they never end up getting "there"?

Date Someone Unemployed? Sure. With the way that the job market is, I really wouldn't blame them for not having a job. As long as I don't have to support them (beyond paying for dates once in a while,) and I see potential in her then I wouldn't mind being down until she got back on her feet. (I'm of course ruling out a rich family scenario, in which case, it would be preferred. Early retirement just for smashing some cat's daughter? Sign me up.
)
Approach a girl while unemployed? I've done it before, hopefully won't ever have to do it again, but I definitely wouldn't be actively seeking a relationship while unemployed. Relationships cost money, and while I'm unemployed I'm trying to limit my spending as much as possible. But I will still approach females for smanging purposes, regardless of my employment situation.

I hate when you guys say "wrong"
Its not impossible but it would be hard, you would have to find someone who doesn't mind not going out and doesnt mind not getting really good gifts.
Im a home body and could careless for gifts, but the other problem is when that unemployed person has money problems and as an S.O you feel obligated to help them.
Its a burden

I can see that. I don't have a problem with doing this as long as they are actively trying to improve their situation.

Agree with the posts about as long as they're trying to better their situation.
But do y'all think a woman's perspective would be different? If a woman is already on her career path then I cannot imagine her wanting to date someone unemployed. I am considering the old-fashioned mindset that the man is the breadwinner although this train of thought has considerably weakened in 2012.
