hi people
back to topic does being honest work
well when it comes to your employment status if your the male of the species it seems as even with valid reasons like bad health unemployment puts women right off(its like the i have kids does to alot of men).
But you cant really lie about something like your job or the lack of because ithe truth will come out in the end .

There is no need to lie about your employment status. Again if the women can not accept you and your circumstances then she is not worth knowing.

You're right mate..unemployment is a big turn off where women are concerned. If someone really Fancy's you then it wont be such a problem..but it can tip the balance if you have been unemployed for a long term. Best not to lie though, because as they say up north [I think], the truth always outs in the end

Hi again people.
Last thing im going to ask before i consider changing my profile.
Do ladies who are unemployed and state it on there profile have the same problem?
PS Redoctober it states on your profile your a university student there is no mention of you being unemployed so your withholding information about yourself so in reality you cannot comment on this subject.

I would have thought that the fact that I'm a student would indicate that I am unemployed, and I always let people know that I'm not anyway. I've been a full time mum for most of the last 15 or so years. I never have qualms to admitting it.
More guys have problems with my having 4 kids than they do my employment status.

hi again..with regards to witholding information...just because someone doesnt state everything on their profile, does not mean its witholding..After all, profiles are just a way of introducing yourself to others..A rough guide to that person..Striking up a conversation with them is the time to talk about yourself and your position, in my opinon..
I can understand how you feel about things, and that coming across to people is important, but i think the best advice would be to tailor your profile, without lying, to show all your positive qualities and stop worrying so much as to how others are seeing you..once contact has been established, then you can explain yourself and position much more clearly..Everyone has a story to tell, and trying to explain yourself with limited words is very hard..

hi again
First off. Sorry if i caused offence to you Redoctober it wasnt intended.
Two i guess from the lack of replies from ladies on this forum i would say unemployment doesnt effect there dating chances (talk about double standards).lol
I am going to alter my profile so i forget to mention my illness and employment status until i find a job(not lie just withhold imformation) and say im a student(which is true).
but i suppose i will regret this but what choice have i eh?.
And i suppose i will get flamed on this forum by women for commenting in the employment issue but frankly i dont care.
I await your replies lol!

It's ok SK, I wasn't offended
You certainly don't have to anounce your illness in your profile IMO. Try to imagine chatting to a stranger in a pub. Would you announce your illness or unemployment that first time? it's unlikely. Just be yourself SK, it's all you can be and join in the other forums too. Make yourself known, have a natter and join in the fun.
Look forward to reading your contributions

So Red not only do u need a stella profile on here but u also have to make yourself known on these forums so in effect as well as having loads of choice on here the ladies also want to Vet the men in forums as well. What a bleeding cheek that is. Dont u think?
i wonder how many guys in my situation thats works for then i suppose they end up with lots of female friends but not partners/girl friends and soul mates.
Well?

erm ... wow!! Well, that's a hard lesson I've learnt there. I'll be a little more careful about putting out my hand in welcome from now on.
Well there's a rarity, i'm lost for words!

well what did you expect it does appear that these forums are for vetting purposes im sad to say
i have read a number quite a few posts on here before i posted this one and it has been suggested that guys post on here quite a few times to get known on here
Sorry if u dont like what i say but thats how it seems like to me.
