There's a difference between a guy that can't afford much and being a lazy-ass all day and a guy that can't afford much but is doing what he can do as he works and all. So if a guy that can't afford much because he's lazy and he doesn't want to do anything came to me, I would reject. The reason here isn't the money, it's because marriage isn't a game, if I was to get married to that type of guy, in the future it will only get worse. He'll want me to do everything financially and in the house. That will be too much for me to take. And in marriage the couple should be a team, not only one of them doing everything.
As for type 2. If he couldn't afford much but he wasn't lazy and like, he's giving it all he can. Then I have no problem whatsoever. Again, it's not the money. It's about his personality. He's not lazy.
He needs to have enough money to stand in his own feet and not rely on me. But if it’s the difference between a expensive night out or cooked meal and dvd in the house then I see no problems with that x
Not important, I don't care much for money. Majority of things I like doesn't require much money anyway. I like staying at home being under warm blanket and watching tv / read / listen to music / play video games. I don't need to be rich to do those stuff.
I wouldn't completely deny. It is not money which is important in a relationship but the capability to earn it.
Most girls look for a guy who knows where he is headed and has an aim in life. Because that is what makes them know that even if a guy isn't rich he has the potential to be. :)
Considering it never comes up in conversation, it's not that important. But I wouldn't date someone who couldn't support themselves. I don't need them to own anything fancy or luxurious, but they need to be able to pay their rent and buy food for themselves.
If he's got a job, and actually is responsible, that's what matters. I've been with guys who worked fast food and guys who are in management. The guy I'm with now lost his job right after we started seeing each other, so I'd bring him dinner almost every night to help relieve a little stress and now he's making more money than I am. Had I been obsessed with money and left when he had none, I would've been throwing out a good thing

I thought it didn’t matter at all - but then I dated a lazy guy who just sat around all day. It matters a small bit that he has a job and understands why me taking mine seriously is important to pay the bills. Also that he’s not trying to move in with me after three weeks for a place to live (true story).
So he doesn’t need to be rich, but it’s better if he can support himself.
lmfao, I want a man who can take care of me, I am already doing that on my own. Why else would I be marrying you? so I can keep taking care of myself, you and letting up jump in me like a trampoline every night? nice try.
Not important, but at the same time ladies don't wanna be with a guy who can't afford for himself. He must be able to work and have an income at least. It shows ambition.
I've not a lot of money myself, so I've learnt to live with it. I probably couldn't date someone with much money, 'cause I would think he wastes it (if he spends a lot)
