I'm not working

So I feel like I can't really go looking for a lady as what would she want with a guy out off work. What good would I be. It's sad been lonely though

Are you looking for work at the moment and how is the job search going? Have you sought help to improve your CV, applications and interview techniques.

Being unemployed can affect your confidence. In the meantime, are you getting out of the house? You could go to the gym, join a club or do some volunteering to build up your socialising skills and self-esteem. You could also look into evening classes as another way to meet people.

In addition, you could consider volunteering in charity shops like Oxfam.

I know it's un-paid, but the retail experience counts (gives you something to put on your CV). Also gives you an avenue to meet new people.

I guess paying for a gym membership may be tricky if you're not working... but nowadays there's often gym equipment in a local park you can use?

Good point about gym membership. I think I meant doing exercise, such as going jogging or going for a run. Feeling fitter will make you feel better, and it gets you out of the house. When looking for work, not establishing a routine or just staying at home all of the time really affects your personal well-being.
