    I am currently job hunting and have also joined a dating website. Is this the wrong thing to do? Should I not join until I am working, please help me figure this out

    Is it a blow job you're looking for?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,537 ✭✭✭Arthur Beesley


    you shouldn't even leave the house without a job

    This might hinder his job hunting e.g. ability to attend face to face interviews.

    Just lie.

    Everyone else on those sites does.

    I went on a date with a girl I met on a dating site once.

    When I turned up at her house it turned out that not only had she completely lied about what she looked like but she then also proceeded to lie to my face about even being on the dating site at all.




    On a completely unrelated note - can anyone recommend a good sat nav? I think mine is starting to act up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,597 ✭✭✭Witchie


    Maybe dating could be your job. Decent gigaloos are hard to find.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 661 ✭✭✭Intensive Care Bear


    If you're attractive you should be ok but if you're ugly then the combination of unemployment and rejection could be too much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 945 ✭✭✭WhiteWalls


    fill them with brown like what we are supposed to do and only come clean on everything when your married and its too late for her to back away then


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13 UrgentAdvice


    Ok, maybe I should just come off it and concentrate on finding the job. I dont want my head wrecked with liars

    Off your hand?

    Just be yourself ffs. The job does not maketh the person, but the hangup about not having one can.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,277 ✭✭✭✭How Soon Is Now



    I like how people randomly answer me with Smiths songs or lyrics :pac:

    If someone only sees you for the job you have or dont have whats the point ?

    In this day and age things like that shouldn't matter as long as u actually have some kind of ambition to do something in life.

    If you start pretending to be something your not or lying on a dating site whats the point really ? Your only lying to yourself people will never get to know who you actually are just some made up person.

    I could be wrong here but i would like to think theres more women out there interested in finding a man who is honest and truthful about his life rather then just wanting a man with a job!.

    You should try searching for women on dating sites who work in recruitment.

    Honestly there are some but i think now a days most women prefer to pay there way.

    I know your gonna get the scabby ones who leave it all up to men but in most cases there very much so out numbered thankfully.

    Irish women get a lot of **** and stick for many of the things they do and believe me ive met enough crazy bitchs in my time BUT i have to say in most cases there actually incredibly down to earth and honest and more willing to try and share responsibility's and pay there way.

    So how do people meet their potential partners these days? Pubs, clubs, hobbies, friends of friends have not worked for me at all. Is there any thing else

    Well try online dating you have nothing to lose ya know.

    Just dont go into it thinking you need to try and impress everyone because ive been on enough of those sites in the past really just be yourself and be real everyone can tell whos full of **** and whos not.

    Basicly i went threw years of wondering how to meet women etc because i was never into chatting them up out and about and well one day i just met someone out of no where at a small session in a friends house.

    Things just happen you sometimes have no control over it you can spend years trying to make them happen but they normally come out of the blue!.

    No. Never ever be yourself. That's just something people say.

    The cops, her father, her brothers, her neighbours, the local priest, my solicitor, my wife, her mother, my mother and my probation officer didn't think so.

    But, f*ck all that lot. Yeah, it was fairly funny alright! :)
