This was originally going to be titled "men who don't work and want to be in a relationship" but I already knew where that would lead into.
I used to be ok with the idea of having a person who doesn't work and I'll take care of him as long as he does the duties a stay at home wife/girlfriend usually does, cooking, cleaning, not being annoying, ect.
That could work if the couple has an understanding and it's also circumstantial.
A good friend of mine lost his job and basically became a stay at home dad while his wife worked. It was temporary of course, he couldn't find a job right away so he did whatever he could to help. Eventually he did get another job so it worked out. In that scenario I could see myself allowing that.
On the other hand. There was a guy that took a liking to me and we were at a small store (he wasn't buying anything for me) and his card got rejected because he didn't have any money. I paid for his stuff but he was embarrassed because he was basically always broke, he didn't know how to manage his funds well.
Someone brought up a great point to me a few days ago and that it's pointless to date if you're broke.
Would you date someone who doesn't have any money (doesn't work)? If so, what would be the compromise?
