personal advertisements

a friend placed a personal on one of the boards ... curiosity got the best of me, and ventured over to look. not all, and granted not everyone is a writer, but i would think one would take a bit of time, at least run it through a spell checker, add a bit of creative flair, and get rid of the clichés and maybe delete the double ads.

“interested in trying new things," glad that they clarified, seeing how doing all the old things is a bit uneventful.

“love to people watch," would suggest to me, don’t mind me, i’m looking for something better to come along!

“looking for the right lady or wanted one happy woman ...," just wouldn’t be fair to say i’m looking for someone depressed and the wrong one!

“not into the dating scene ... but wanting a relationship ... ," think one dates first, then a relationship!

“not into head games ... honest ... loyal ...own skin ... faithful ..... ," and the baggage hasn’t left the door yet!

“mother ...," i would think that anyone that mentions their mother in a personal ad, well they are either looking for a mother or be prepared to date both him and his mother.

“divorced for almost ...," here comes the baggage, they have counted the days!

“dream date ...," what he is really saying, is you will never live up to my expectations!
