Which jobs would attract you to a partner?

[BobbyBiscuits]

In the same vain as my last post about what jobs would put you off..

Which careers would you imagine would make you more likely to date someone?
Light-hearted of course.

Mine would be-

Musician
Artist
Academic
Engineer
Plumber
Joiner
Cannabis farmer

What would yours be?

I don't agree with having a "checklist" for finding a partner. Shows a great degree of immaturity.

I know it’s a lighthearted thread but if OPs dream man is a weed grower I think she’s pretty immature regardless 🙄

My husband is a doctor. Can’t bear to talk about work when he’s home and very glad he’s not married to a medic so we can’t talk shop. In fact, he’s so done in he doesn’t talk much at all!

As I understand it, OP...

Your job - pretty much the one activity most of us will spend the most time on throughout our lives - tells you nothing AT ALL about a partner except their salary.

But a lighthearted thread you spent all of 60 secs composing can accurately predict both your maturity levels and how lonely you are going to be in life

ps. a vet!

Well I wouldn't pick another accountant. He leaves his pants on the floor and picks his feet. He's quite a good cook but he's not that good with money. I defo wouldn't have another one.

Are cannabis farmer's feet better?

I always had an idea that people who work well with spreadsheets and data analysis were a bit humourless and likely to miss the point of jokes....

Could be wrong, of course.

I'll have you know that I'm both shit hot with a totally hilarious!

That was obviously shit hot with a Spreadsheet

Although my current attention to detail may suggest otherwise.

My husband was a lecturer.
A biker. Intelligent.
A traveller.
Great at DIY.
Loving .. kind .. caring..
Great husband and Dad.

Not true of my DH, data analyst and loves to laugh.

Any kind of craftsman - joiners, cabinet makers, stonemasons, that kind of thing

a lusty farmer

failing this, I would consider any of these candidates

lusty horse breeder
lusty horticulturalist
lusty botanist
lusty garden designer
lusty architect
lustful designer (of the Terence Conran milieu)
lusty travel writer (of the Michael Palin type)
lusted after travel writer (of the Michael Woods only type)

Gosh I couldn’t disagree with you more!

Of COURSE certain personality types are drawn to certain jobs or sectors. Your job can shape who you interact with, what kind of place you want or have to live in (urban, rural), what’s important to you in life (service? Money? Experiences? To have no stress? To be challenged daily or ideally never?!)

I work in an industry which is completely incestuous and stereotyped as attracting a certain type of person. And do you know what? It’s completely true. I’m one of them and they’re all my type of people and my job is pretty much my life, by accident, because we all hang out and marry each other etc 🤣

I was so carried away thinking of Michael Woods … I meant an Historian/Writer

Lusty tree surgeon?

I just came on to say tree surgeon!

4-5 blokes in harnesses being all agile and manly while welding huge power tools in my garden a while back was an unexpected but marvellous spectacle 😄 And I reckon they must earn a decent wage, the amount we paid..!

All these lusty people racing around doing their LUSTY thing

I tend to get crushes on, mathematicians, composers, and some professors or researchers. Men who have to flex their intelligence are a huge turn-on.

Once again I'm quite different from the OP!
Musician and artist would be low on my list. Considering it can be seasonal and unsociable hours with a dose of dossing about 🤣 not meaning to offend anyone. I have friends who are both and they do plenty of dossing!

Teacher and scientist are high on my list, and car mechanic.

Would loathe to date a creative sorry- screams emotional, financially unstable imo.

Cannabis farmer 🤣
I know one of those too...trust me you wouldn't want to go out with them! 🙈😂

Accountant
Pharmacist
Optician
Engineer
Psychiatrist

A job that involves 30-40 hours of work per week, no more than that. The job itself doesn’t matter. I’m all for people having ambition and drive but not to the extent that their family life is compromised.

My partner is a chemist and well respected academic. He’s extraordinarily clever and a massive nerd, which I love!

Brains are my thing so any career that requires proper knowledge and expertise.

Or a farmer 😂😂

Space Cowboy.
Bounty hunter (Din Djarin not Dog).
Legoland model builder.
Director of cat meme creation.
The person who writes those three-word descriptions of Netflix shows.
