If she is in the process of improving her education/skill set(s) in order to get a job and get off welfare, then yes. If she's sitting on the couch eating Cheetos bought with her food stamps and complaining about the system, then no.
How does one do that? Just work, if they can find it, and sleep. As cyphorx said just be lonely and alone for years? Sounds like a recipe for suicide.
I think there is a difference in someone who fell on hard times and needs some temporary assistance and someone whose career is living off the dole with no intentions of doing better.
This ^^.
I understand and have a friend on disability that can't work because of severe MH issues, but someone scamming/bragging about it no I can't date that. I have a bit more respect for myself.
Maybe, but you'd have to show serious effort at improving your life and getting off welfare. I'd like to see a viable plan to pull yourself out of poverty--like getting an education or certification in something that would make you employable. Out of principle, I couldn't be with someone satisfied with mooching off the government, and with no desire to make something of themselves. That doesn't bode well for other aspects of your life.
Why would a guy care? I don't see how it makes sex any less pleasant. Also marrying any woman, a man can expect to get mooched off of unless he's a gigolo who married a rich woman so it's irrelevant.
Usually lower class, uneducated and probably never finished high school, and they almost always have some type of criminal record or use drugs.
I wouldnt have anything in common with them, those type of people are the welfare class, they probably grew up on some type of Government assistance, I always stay away from those types.
people like that usually date other people in the same social class
Stereotype much?
Prior to receiving child support, i did get food stamps.
I grew up in a wealthy family, with career oriented people. I do work full time and have for almost 20 years. I have never done drugs or been exposed to them.
I can assure you that I do not fit in with the low class as I was not raised that way.
It depends on how much I like the person, what got them into that situation and if they're willing to ever change it. Also are people on welfare still able to have a part time job? Or does being on welfare mean you NEVER work?
I worked over 40-45 hours a week and still qualified.
