"Today in Ways to Kick a Person Who&amp;#x27;s Already Down, there&amp;#x27;s some unfortunate news for daters who are also struggling in terms of their careers. According to a poll on dating and finances, the thing that would make the most people uncomfortable about a romantic prospect is unemployment. The second biggest deal-breaker is significant amounts of student loans, which is a turn-off for 42 percent of respondents. (I barely even understand this as practically everyone I know is buried in student loans.) Is unemployment a deal-breaker for you? I wouldn&amp;#x27;t say it&amp;#x27;s an absolute, 100 percent, do-not-pass-go situation, but I would be wary of dating someone without a job. But NOT because I assume unemployed people are some kind of no-ambition losers or anything though, especially after a few years of a tough economy! I&amp;#x27;ve been there myself, and I know that plenty of smart, hardworking people go through it. But I would definitely be hesitant to date someone in that current state knowing that it&amp;#x27;s such a stressful, confidence-breaking, generally annoying state of mind. I certainly wouldn&amp;#x27;t want to embark on trying to meet and impress people romantically at the same time I was freaking out about impressing people professionally. So I wouldn&amp;#x27;t imagine it&amp;#x27;s exactly the best time to get to know someone who&amp;#x27;s at that point in his life. Still, jobs come and go. Great guys are rare. Would you date a guy who was unemployed? Or is it too much of a turn-off for you? Other no-nos: Our 5 Irrational Dating Deal-Breakers. What&amp;#x27;s Yours?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
