If you really in love with someone and she/he also love you. So there is no value for money.. In serious relationship money is not important thing...

After a certain age it shows lack of life planning, ambition, and discipline. Not very attractive traits. Of course you can get away with it provided you are a "starving artist" or musician type. But an average guy with nothing going for him = screwed.

I have worked a dead end 9 an hr retail job for 15 years. I work with a bunch of broke, drug addicted alcholics and they have no trouble scoring women.

Dear when you really love some one then don't ever compare it with financially. Because love feelings.. So you can not compare it with any other things...

What do consider little or no money though?

Like 10 dollars an hour or like 55K a year?

Why do you need money for dating? There are more than enough things to do that don't cost a penny. If you're lucky enough to live in a big city, there are endless free concerts, festivals, art displays and many many other things going on that you don't have to pay for. If you live in a country, there are just as many things like camping, fishing, hiking etc etc so you can enjoy nature while dating.

Now, if youre trying to impress your date with your socio-economic status and think that's your only way to land a mate, you have more problems than not having money.

I find your username interesting, as your views on love are very naive.

Love does not conquer all. Fianances do matter. Financical strain splits up more couples than anything else.

Different spending habits, resentment, inability to provide for children etc. all take a toll.

Love is a choice, not "feelings".

THOSE are the undesirable traits... not the lack of money.
