Embrace the Opportunity
Being unemployed isn't all doom and gloom. It's a chance to reassess your life and focus on personal growth. This includes your love life. From my experience, dating while unemployed can be a unique opportunity to meet people outside your usual work circle.
Honesty is the Best Policy
When dating, it's important to be upfront about your employment status. This doesn't mean it should be the first thing you mention, but it's something that should be discussed early on. According to a survey by CareerBuilder, 75% of respondents said they would date someone who was unemployed1.
