Looking For Mr. Right...



Someone I know... is looking for her match. I know she's always been interested in men in law enforcement so I decided to do a search for "law enforcement personal ads". This is what I found, evidently a cop had this posted on a law enforcement chat board.

What a Man's Dating Ad Really Means...

As long as friendship involves nudity

Good with a remote and a six pack

Good Looking really means...

Mature really means...

Open-minded really means...

Physically fit really means...

Thoughtful Really means...

  1. OH that is so pessimistic!!! It's true, there are a lot of nuts out there, whether in the personal ads or not. You gotta remember, sis, that at our age we can't go to bars to meet people. This really is the only way to go. You just have to know yourself really, really well and know exactly what you're looking for.

    Look at me and David: I seriously could not have found a more perfect partner to go through the rest of my life with. He is unfailingly tolerant, loving, kind, respectful, evolved, generous, smart and funny. And I never would have met him if not for match.com.

  2. Linda, maybe you should post this on your profile and say "if this is you, don't bother". It would sure weed out the ones you've obviously found so far! Slugs! Rats! Let me come over there and kick all thier asses! These guys need to know who's sister they're dealing with!

  5. HOLY CRAP! DID YOU MAKE THOSE UP??? Those are hysterical! Ok Linda, maybe you'd better get right on this - forget about enjoying yourself and finding out who you are! HURRY! There's no time to waste before mom's description is what you'll be finding!

  6. If I did have such a list, I'd never find it . Couldn't remember where it was. So, yes, it came from my little pea brain.
