Are men uninterested if a woman doesn’t have a great job?

Question

Summeroflove · Accepted Answer

A great job is really subjective number one and number two yes, some men will become less interested the same as some women also do this to men as well.

I will say that some men aren’t as materialistic if they have a decent job themselves but are looking for a genuine connection they would be willing to date women who make less money but have also been taken advantage of as well.

I will say people should be looking for a genuine connection. Sometimes that’s made with someone who has a similar drive and lifestyle as they do, not so much about financial incentives as well as social status. It’s a case by case basis but if someone judges someone as human beings based on that I would say it’s a major red flag.

I mean... my job isn't so fancy. Could be worse, but it's not going to impress anybody. I'm not going to ever be rich, but a good woman with an not so great job is better than on ok woman with a great job.

If I can be with someone I think is amazing who happens to not have a great job... that's cool. I've always been all about the person... practical life problems... not if there's a woman who I seem to dig. We could figure out how to rob banks or something. We'll figure something out.

Yep I'm still interested 🙂

From my experience they do… people in my area are quite judgmental though and people always comparing. I’ve had a guy not interested in me because I had a job that wasn’t so great (the meat works) but he was literally a painter that paints roads as if that’s any better…
Not to mention, not having a certain amount of savings can also be off putting to guys… again, this is from my experience and what I’ve seen.
Like I’m sorry you grew up in a rich family and get to save while living at home but some people don’t have that easy life. I’m a foreigner here so I have no support since 16 years old. A lot of people from small towns just don’t get that, that it’s not so easy as they think.

I’m on the disability pension for paranoid schizophrenia (I can’t work and I’m fat); but I’m intelligent and try to be a good person and I’m attractive and i haven’t had a problem finding a boyfriend with a job who is attractive, smart and stable. Is it more complicated? Definitely. For some men either or both things are dealbreakers. For others, not at all. Focus on the ‘not at all;’ ones; and take it on the chin when someone rejects you because they can’t accept you as you are.

Avicenna · Answer

Whatever gave you that idea? As regards money, more important than her income is her overall financial situation, because if she's bad at managing money and has bad spending habits, it's going to be worse for her partner than if she doesn't have a great job but manages her money well.

HawkPerception · Answer

The majority of men do not give a shit what a woman's job is. For me, I'd just rather my partner does not have a masculine job. Other than that, I really don't care.

Finchie40 · Answer

D_Bone_Steak · Answer

There is a reason I don't even ask chicks if they have a job. I'm more interested in knowing if they're STD free.

If she has a job, what does that do for me? Chicks thinking they need to be the man that attracts them have no idea that men are not like them or obsessed with the same shit. Oh do please tell me about your education and career so that I can be bored to death. Tell me about being a boss bitch that don't need no man... it makes my dick hard. (That was sarcasm, please don't)

RavVid · Answer

Guys don't have the same mate selection criteria as women do. A great high paying is probably on every girls bucket list for the guy of their dreams but it isn't on most men's list.

My #1 is the girl is genuinely nice because it is observable and I think it is an umbrella under which many desirable character traits lie. My #2 is calm and patient.

As for job, I'd be happy with a broke waitress at a two bit diner. I could easily see her as better wife material than some high flying woman. In fact waiting is a caring profession so if she is a good one I'd be interested.

hahahmm · Answer

It's hilarious how women spent decades talking about how they can do as much as a man and wanting "equality" and bragging about their degrees and jobs but at the end of the day, the vast majority of women want traditional benefits from a dude. A dude who is able to raise her life up socially & financially. She just made it harder on herself by reducing the number of guys who can do that for her. There's a reason why a lot of rich and famous women can't keep a man... many cannot even get a man (for serious). It's not a coincidence. It's because the guys have options and preferences of their own. She can't just waive her hands and force dudes to accept her terms.

The guy who needs you to have a great job is also not ambitious OR simply doesn't take you seriously because you really have nothing to offer him that makes you think you're worth putting in more.

Are you uninterested if a guy is EVERYTHING you're looking for in a man but doesn't have good job?

If the answers is "no" then I ask you, why do you think a guy would be any different? If the answers is "yes" than you got bigger problems. 😆

Guys in general are conditioned to be self sustaining producers. We're built for work. We don't look for a woman to bail us out. So it's not that we don't care about your job. It's that we don't approach it from a position of dependency. Now in a MODERN sense most families today the husband and the wife both typically work in some form. But disproportionately the man is typically the primary income (not always though. My sister makes more than her husband).

Guys are less worried about a woman's income and more worried about her COMMITMENT to him.

CounterIntuition · Answer

Dude, trust me, if a woman doesn't have a great job, men are totally going to lose interest, I mean, who wants to date someone who's just going to be a burden on them financially, right, it's like, you want someone who can keep up with you, and if she's just sitting at home all day, that's just not attractive, I'm telling you, get a girl with a crappy job, or better yet, one who's unemployed, and watch how fast the guys lose interest, it's like, they want someone who's independent, and if she's not bringing home the bacon, then she's just not worth it, and honestly, if she's not making at least six figures, she's not even worth considering, I mean, you want someone who can afford to take you out for nice dinners and buy you expensive gifts, not some chick who's just going to be a drain on your resources.

molonski2 · Answer

Depends what men she is looking for..

More inferior individuals with no money , and no prospects ( or few ) of course they couldn't care less.. YES , its extremely important for a quality individual , its comes back to education and other things..

Jersey2 · Answer

Yep. My girlfriend was super nice, great with kids, looked amazing, sweet and put up with my shit… which was a lot. She had a job that didn’t pay much and the way taxes worked at the time she was killing me when we first got married. She stopped working, got pregnant (by me, heh) and never worked again. Been married for decades now.

Most men aren't interested in a woman if she don't have a good job they all love to say they don't care but it's false, I'm a maid with shitty hours and I have been rejected many time because fo this job, men think it's ok to have this job when you're young during the summer but not ok if it's your full-time job.

BonzoInBitburg · Answer

I don't care if a woman doesn't have a great job. It's easier to travel with someone who has a minimum wage job and can book time off easily than a C level job. In my experience, women with great jobs are more stressed out and I don't like that
