Try being unemployed and married
i just recently lost my job and when i got my last pay check all i could think was that hopefully this would get me through keeping up my end of the responsibilities of running the household for at least two months...but what happens after that if i havent found a job yet in that time. How am I going to hold up my end of the bargain?
I think as long as you're not sitting and loafing around and you're actually doing something about it is cool. it may even get you some sympathy from a girl who actually understands that you losing your job doesnt make you any less of a person. Dont go outright blurting it out that you dont have a job but should the question " so, what do you do?" arise, you could answer with, " well i used to do ........... but currently i am in the world of the unemployed, I would like to do .............. however but still looking for new employment to tide me over until i can actually do what i really want to"
People can never fault you for trying.
