I understand that a someone's job is a big part of what defines them, but when dating, you're dating the person and their values and lifestyle. If you feel a connection with him in these aspects, and do consider him capable and independent then I feel you're jumping the gun.

The man might seriously be in a pickle in terms of his job, hear him out and why he doesn't feel this is the right place for him. You can even find out about his long-term goals in a career that he feels passionate about and his plan of action to get there. This is a great opportunity to learn about his attitude and work ethic and consider whether this is someone you want to share a future with, the guy can find another job.

But be warned, make sure he's not just all talk. Just my two cents.
