Is this a good thing?

this is what my ex said to me we will be together soon enough just let me get back on my feet financially then I can concentrate on getting back with you right now I need to concentrate on getting a job and keeping it. is that a good thing

I would say yes. It's good that he knows that he needs a job and needs to be financially stable before he can get involved with someone.

Heres what my suggestion to you would be...since he claims he needs to get back on his feet financially before dating you again, STOP messing around with him until he does.
