What would your Honest personal ad say?

[Could Be Worse English Accent]Um, rather a bit like this? There’s an English girl in my Latin class and she talks a bit like this.[/CBWEA]

Gotta say, though, that southern accents usually do it for me a bit more;)

Oh, and **ultrafilter, I may be contacting you later on in life;) I know, I know, I’m not a girl…

Well, that bit may be negotiable. I’ll probably see you at a dopefest sometime in the near future, given that we’re both in the same geographic area.

<Homer Simpson> Whoo-hoo! </Homer Simpson>

And I know I am. Can I have the left side of the duplex?

20y/o petite brunette. slim, absurdly large breasts.
GSOH, intelligent, student, broke. likes nights in with a bottle of wine and good company.
WLTM someone who matches up to irishfella in looks, personality and…other aspects.

sadly, however, i fear it can’t be done. i’m stuck with him.

Ummm, all I can say is HELLO NURSE. You like wanna get together and go hiking some time? :smiley: Can’t sail, but can read a chart and am willing to learn.

As for me…
DWM, 29, 6’2", 185-190 lbs, shoulder length brown hair, tattoos. Loves heavy metal music, motorcyles, the Simpsons. Enjoys traveling and does so a good bit (14,000+ miles this summer alone) mostly by motorcycle.

Enjoys children, have none of my own, likes animals, mostly cats, can not cook well. Somewhat fit, swims for enjoyment and fitness. Likes sweets, though tends to avoid them. Social drinker though will have a beer at home. Only smokes occasional cigar and pipe, last time was a year ago.

Cons: can get moody, but if left alone it usually passes quickly. Looks either upset or depressed usually, but is rarely either.

Looking for female, any race, culture, 22-35 (will consider older but probably not younger), perfer long dark hair.

So anyone want a date? I’ve got an extra helmet.

SWM 29, 6’1", 160lbs, blond hair (which varies in style), blue eyes. Fit and hyperactive (I prefer energetic but my friends say bouncy - far too many references to Tigger), likes playing football, rock-climbing, reading, RPGing, nights out (and most sports) and spends far too much time involved in musical societies (singing, playing, acting, back-stage, construction). Due to previous spends not enough time on PhD, and as such is only just writing up. Non-smoker with classic car awaiting repairs. In some respects highly disorganised, in others organised - extravert but pretty shy, and hopeless when it comes to understanding/dating women. Good sense of humour, but prone to making bad puns and wordplay. (Oh, and tends to act the fool when nervous.)

Looking for woman, preferably slightly younger. Non-smoker. Sporty or active and musical, or at least able to tolerate lots of rehearsal time. Neurotics need not apply.

As part of the honesty clause: Must be attractive - stunning is okay - and must not be turned off by the thought of Marmite. Wealthy is also a good point…

Neurotic SWF, 22. Petite w/average figure. Green/Brown. Nonsmoker, nondrinker. Very shy with strangers, very outgoing with friends. Silly most of the time. Loves cats, afraid of dogs. Hobbies include: Drawing, knitting, and hating her job. Low maintenance, no social life to speak of.

Seeking: Male, Age 20 and up. Nonsmoker. Any race. Must be rich, strong but sensitive, generous, considerate. Must have excellent sense of humor, steady employment. In short: must be perfect in every way. Preferably attractive, physically fit. No slobs or wrestling fans, please.
Kn(pickier than I have any right to be)ckers

PT Marmite you say…

<furtively sneaks back into the thread, and watches ems closely for signs of turning off>

I forgot to add - also am currently financially bereft, having yet to get a full-time job to start when I finish (and repairing car, moving house and socialising too much).

Yeeees, marmite. Yummy!

SWF, 5’3" average build, red/blue. Non-smoker/non-drinker seeks same. I seem shy until you get to know me, then you’ll ever wonder why you thought I was in the first place. Good with children, but doesn’t want any, but your having them is, ok(but no cats, please). My hobbies include listening to alternative music, writing, being sarcastic, complaining about snow, and pc gaming. Fears clowns and bridges, so professional clowns and engineers need not respond.

Seeks: local SWM 24-32, good sense of humor, a sense of adventure (since I have nearly none without motivation from others) who is looking for a long term relationship yet won’t be driven insane by taking things slowly. The ablity to not take moodiness or sarcasm personally, as well as also being addicted to the X-files, big pluses.

29, SWF, half Asian, half French-German. Average build. A mix of contradictions. I may be playing gameboy and watching CNN at the same time. I’m a goofball, general dork, laugh at myself. I’m introspective, though, and take all of my responsibilities seriously. For better or for worse, completely honest and rather blunt about it. Easily flattered, not easily impressed. Apt to have a crush on soccer moms. Does not believe in having contempt in someone I love. Probably generous to a fault. Modesty will charm me indefinitely, kindness will soothe me instantly, happiness will make me beam, affection will make me melt.

Seeks: SWF, honesty a must. Kind. Affectionate. Good sense of humor, not afraid to admit faults, won’t laugh at me if I dance around in my underwear (or, at least, will laugh at how great it is to be that bold and real with another person), loyal, loving.

Tibs.

Wait, I’m a goof. I’m not SWF…I’m single half asian and don’t care if the person about the race of the person I’m with. I typed that instinctively because it was personal ad lingo.

Ummm,…yeah, that dork thing again.

Tibs.

Oh Christ, since we’re being honest…

I love boobs so it helps if she doesn’t mind me pawing around. Lots. :stuck_out_tongue:

Tibs.

[giggle] Well, that really, pretty much says it all. :smiley:

Okay. I’m a SBF, I can’t count but I know I’m over 21 because I remember when I turned 21 the challenge of drinking and not getting caught was just gone, and I was so disappointed :(. Anyway, I’m pretty damn smart and can be quite a smart aleck when I want to. Folks just take things too damn seriously, and they just need to lighten up IMHO. I’m short, as most folks are taller than me. I have hair on my head that I’m thinking of shaving completely off because it’s getting on my nerves. Besides the fact that total strangers feel at liberty to come up to me and put their hands in my hair :mad:, it gets caught in my zippers, gets in the way when I’m driving, walking, reading, writing, and it’s a royal pain in the ass to wash because it takes ten years to dry. [sigh] I probably won’t cut it, though, because you have to really maintain short hair, and I’m incredibly lazy. I have a real problem when it comes to book stores. Every time I go in one, I come out with at least one book; consequently, my house is overflowing to the rafters with books. I don’t know how much I weigh because that’s too many numbers for me to have to keep track of and I don’t have enough fingers and toes to count that high anyway. I have huge, innocent looking eyes. [innocent eyes] Strangers on the street, in stores, just about everywhere I go tell me they think I’m beautiful so that’s nice. Um, I am absent-minded because I usually have fifty thousand things I’m trying to do at the same time. I avoid religious folks as much as I can because I am not religious, though I respect other folks’ right to be religious, and I don’t want to be converted to X religion. I just love reading books, dancing, drinking, shopping, and spending time chattin’ and gigglin’ with my friends. Lessee, um, I just adore Southern accents. French, Spanish, Italian, and British accents are wonderful too. :slight_smile: Intelligent fellas with beautifully accented voices get me to fannin’ myself. Whoo-whee! I’d like to find me a fella who is employed, who is NOT a psycho, and who is not under the delusion that he can walk all over me, with whom I can have intelligent conversations, just do fun things like dancing,’ traveling, walking in the park . . . , and respect, and who will respect me. Ideally, this fella has a Southern or some kind of European accent, but no matter his accent, he should love to laugh and play and cook and clean and just do everything in his power to keep me gigglin’.

D’oh, I managed to leave out my age. I’m 25.

Hey PT I aint stunning but I am wealthy (well paid off my students debts anyway) :smiley:
Must…resist…urge…to…flirt

I am: SWF, 42, self-reliant. Loves animals, books and movies. Devout Catholic. Plain - not beautiful, not ugly. Not fat, not thin. Short - 5’1" Green eyes. Smart, with a tendancy to be a know-it-all, even when I don’t. A recent tendancy toward depression, but I still enjoy the company of others. Non-smoker, non-drinker. I have 5 dogs, 2 cats and a horse.

You are: male, single, straight, aged 35-? Animal lover a must. Catholic a big plus. Not a smoker, but social drinking okay. Sports fan okay, as long as it’s not an obsession. Horsemen given preference.

StG

Yowza! A woman doesn’t check a thread for a few days and all of a sudden everyone’s saying how much they dig her! And her is me!

Anyway, nice gentlemen (I assume you’re gentlemen because I’m straight, but it you’re not I’m sorry for the assumption and thanks for the attention.) Treviathan and Khadaji, it’s lovely to get email. And that’s as much of a hint as I’ll drop. Oh, and I get the left side of the duplex. It’s the one with the fridge that makes ice.

Hey Monica, I wonder how many people around our age actually are on this board…it might be interesting to find out…i know of one other girl that is about your age, LonelyNoodle05, but a little younger… besides, that, i wonder if we are an oddity?

(well, I know I am, but that’s a different story altogether…)
