I have dated men who couldn't support me. Mostly when I was younger and wasn't really thinking about marriage. When I met my husband he had a good job but lost it a few months before our wedding, so when we were married he was unemployed. When I worked full time I made more money than he did, but after losing a second job, he got a job in an area we always wanted to live, so we moved and now I stay home with the kids and he supports us all. Luckily where we moved is a much lower cost of living compared to where we used to live so it is easier to get by on one income.

There are all kinds of women out there. Some women might be relieved to have a husband who can stay home and take care of the house and children so she doesn't feel pressured like she has to. Some women might have a lot of money or a great job and want a relationship for more than being supported.

When my husband and I met he was surprised I wasn't put off by his prematurely gray hair that he had at age 36. Plus he was surprised I would go out with him because he is nine years older than me. I was surprised that he was interested in someone as shy and awkward as me as I had no friends and was pretty much a hermit, still am...and he is very comfortable in social situations. right now as i write this he is out at the bar playing with his pool league.

I hope maybe that helps you a little. For a long time I was sure I would never have a husband or children. I was ready to adopt a few more cats and give up when I found my husband. So you just never know.
