Your partner is unemployed while you are gainfully employed or both of you found yourself in labour market for no fault of yours.
Oftentimes, we humans are tried in life especially love. One of such trial is a situation where for one reason or the other one or both of the partners has no job. At times, it may be that he/she lost his her job after the two of you have committed into the relationship. Such a situation can be very traumatic. It is often the cause of infidelity in relationship.
If you found yourself in this situation, how would you manage it?

Why shouldn't it? After all she benefited from the guy when the going was good. Are ladies that insensitive?

The relationship will still workout irrespective of who lost job but only if they were sincere, truthful, faithful and understanding with each other. In abscent of these, it won't work

I think if the guy is unemployed and he has an understanding girlfriend or spouse as the case may be, things can work out but it depends on how supportive the girl is.

Men find it harder to deal with unemployment, their pride gets hurt if the babe now becomes the 'breadwinner' of the relationship. Its now the woman's duty to reassure the man that things are ok and not to rub it in his face at every opportunity!

My dear thank God for you. Money and sex are the main causes of marital katakata. @ topic,if a man loses his job and is out there,actively looking and even doing odd jobs to help out while searching,any woman would love his efforts. But if he gives up on life and begins to vegetate on the couch,watching "Jerry Springer" and eating kpoff kpoff. He will see fire!

It takes the grace of God to be supportive to your partner if he or she is unemployed. If you were given your partner 50% TLC before, Now is the right time to give your 100%. And above all be very patient and trust in God

@ Poster, While either of the couple losing job should not be a biggie in a REGULAR home, both losing their staff of bread at the same time could be disastrous. I believe maintaining a good communication at this period is the key to getting back without doing the forbidden. They should both be open to one another concerning how to resolve the issue and make conscious effort not to let seeking for meanings of livelihood tear them apart. One cannot overemphasize the rate at which communication can disappear when a couple is faced with the issue of survival. On the other hand, I will say there are situations that prevention is the best solution. Couples (and even singles) should endeavour to have enough fund in cash or in an easily convertible means to take care of at least 3 months expenses in order to provide a comfort zone while trying to find their feet if this unfortunate incidence should befall them; knowing they can keep afloat for 3months without their jobs gives them enough rooom and peace of mind to think clearly on what to do to remedy the situation as quickly as possible. Shalom
