seeking

This is inspired by the "perfect mate thread", but I thought that it might be fun. Imagine that you are placing an add for a mate in a singles column newspaper. Has anyone ever done this? I figure it would be a daunting experience.

I'll brace myself here:
Wanted, tall, dark, handsome male. Must be housebroken, able to prepare exotic foods, provide good body massages and be a master of the sensual arts. A reasonable level of literacy and a sense of humour essential.

Devastatingly attractive SWF

cherishes a long-term goal of learning to sail, buying a boat, and sailing around the world. Stopping in various interesting/exotic countries to travel across them on horseback. She seeks a loyal, dark-haired, bearded male, 5'6 or taller, with whom to share all this wonder. He must enjoy being thrown to the ground regularly. Non-smoker a must (allergies, you know). Must love animals. Must be willing to stand in the rain

Hm. Well, I'm 5'9", wear a small beard, and most happily married. Can't say I ever placed an ad for a mate--I've heard horror stories about what you get. But then, I suspect those chatrooms on the net are just about as good.

My wife's brother found his current wife through one of 'em; she was divorced, and had 3 kids. They dated for a month, and then, lo and behold, she was pregnant. And yes, he was the father. They're married, now, and got yet-another unintentional addition to the family.

I met my wife through finding activities of mutual interest--in this case, Celtic dancing, with live music. Afterwards, a group of us would go hottubbing. We started dating...and kept dating. I moved away, and we kept our respective telephone companies in steady money for nearly two years (aside from trips we managed to visit one another).

Sorry, I'm rambling. I just rose from a nap, and that's as good an excuse as I can come up with.

I'm not that desperate to place an ad here

What does this stand for? Methinks Vixen is a tad too familiar with the terminology of the classifieds

You didn't even specify gender

Do you use the classifieds, or business personals (1-900-SILICONE)?
