will you still marry your partner even though you know he's a bum?

For women: i just heard from a friend that his former colleague told him, she will still choose his bf over men who are more handsome, more stable, etc. eventhough she knows she's going to support him. she said that above everything and anything, she knows this "bum" will be there for her, will love her and take care of her forever... i just don't see the logic yet i find myself thinking what if that happens to me. will i accept that? how about you? will you still sign up for it? you know this man will love you forever, will never cheat on you, will take care of you but financially, he can't support you...

I think that if I had a stable income and I was definately able to support him and he was an amazing guy that I couldn't pass up, I would easily do it. But he would have to get a job. He would have to at least be trying. He's not going to take advantage of me! I don't know how I would feel about being somewhat superior to him in a way, though. He would have to respect me a bit extra because I'm the one with the money. It might be bad for his self esteem. But I don't think it's that big of an issue if you ask me. As long as we don't have to rob banks!

No way. I like to know that I am provided for and he is not a bum. My husband and I when we first started dating he was going through something that he did not feel comfortable tellingme yet because we had been dating for 4 mths. He stopped working and was just staying at my apartment everyday. It really started to scare me because I loved him so and I did not want to think that this was happening. I finally helped him through his issue and he want back to work. I know that is when my husband is give out when he sits out for a few days. But he works hard and I know that something is really wrong when he doesnt go.
