Cultural gap is so wide between 'Merica and China, that sometimes I wonder. Chinese girl are teh best, they are nice and caring, but I can't halp to wonder just how big money is part of a relationship between mixed couple.

I guess it depends on why you lost your job...
Incompetance? Having sex with the manager's house boy? Possibly good reasons to leave you.
Downsizing? Racist company? Maybe not a good reason to leave you.
(But when you're just a troll on an expat website, there's no chance of losing your job!)
I find this website very good to ask question that I wouldn't normally ask to people around me. I get interesting answers that make me learn culture faster than years here! Language barrier sometimes hard to make do, but here I get all the answers to teh questions I always pondered!
if the lady is sincere enough and she believes your ability and will-power i think she will not leave. its another reason if she has already someone in her mind and she is just having a relationship based upon something intangible with you so i guess if you lost your job she will feel insecure with you and will leave you very easily with out giving a damn on it.
it happened with a chinese guy. having a good job, salary , car , house and child as well i know him its not a story. that woman got interested with a foreigner nearly 55 of age. she filed divorce with that chinese men and left everything with him just for this single foreigner.
dears and nears everything depends. i wish we get enough sincere ladies......
I don't think it will be very difficult to find a new job in China nowadays. So the answer is NO.
Also depends what job you lost.
If you shovel poo in a barnyard, or clean the bogs at Maccy D's, then she probably wouldn't mind.
So long as you got a better job afterwards! (Like trolling on expat websites)
90% of the chinese women will leave you immediately you start going low on your income.
In their mind its their livelihood you just lost, not your job, it has nothing to do with you and no hard feelings but they want a provider not someone they see as a loser. They'll be gone before you blink an eye
I think yes,,,,,
so good way to break up is tell her you get fired,, ,
say honey I got fired,,,,,,, she leave you ,,, no crying from her,,, she save face,,,,,,
you go back to work free and clear
No money no honey and local women leave the meter running my friend....
Any woman needs that sense of security from their man! Not just Chinese women!
Being unemployed for a little while in between jobs is no problem, and I seriously doubt any would leave you OUTRIGHT if you lost your job. You'd probably get a lot of crap, but i don't think they would go that far.
If you go months without a job, expect to be alone!

If ALL women thought like that 50% of the European population right now would be single...
no. if you have the ability to make money in another way.
As a general rule of thumb, it's a huge loss of face in China for the woman to make more than the man. As such, unless you win the lottery, I don't think your relationship would last long in China if you lost your job.
Leave me? Hell no, mine lent me more than 10,000 kuai after four months of no job and having run out of savings.
She's now my fiance.
Jesus dude how the hell do you not have a job in China?? It can't be any easier. That's just sad. Are you looking or sitting at home smoking dope and playing PS3 all day?? You should marry her, at least she'll support you!

I work in a specific field. I have a job now and am doing quite well, thank you. While I was unemployed I did oddjobs teaching English, but I'm not a retard, so that's not my main field. I couldn't take full time gigs doing that cause they wanted me to sign year long contracts and I wouldn't . She leant me money cause I told her I would have to go home cause I would be short on rent and nothig was panning out. that's when she offered. Then, with about two weeks left on my visa, I got something.

So you mean, only "retards" teach English? We might be in a country full of retards then. You should realise that maybe one day your "specific" profession might not even be needed anymore and any job is as good as another. I do really respect teachers, I tried it myself and I am rubbish at it so I would never even consider it a job for retards, I think is a very hard profession, so it is any job that involves any contact with other people (waitressing, cleanining, customer services...). In my opinion a real man is not measure by his expertise or the number of credit cards in his wallet. A real man is the one that facing difficulties is able to step down his podium in order to go on and make a life for himself.
Toad just picked a good woman. Alot of girls prioritize the money over the relationship because they don't want to risk losing on the relational investment. So they willingly choose to be materialistic and hunt for the richest guy they can come across or just focus on financial stability of a guy. This line of thinking is no different from a courtesan - thus many chinese women whore themselves out for the highest bidder.
