BWAHA! I love this one: "We can take a romantic walk… down the driveway… to get the mail." Also, same: "My favorite thing to do in bed? Read." When I had a dating profile (how I met Mr. Ex) it definitely wasn't this funny, but I do remember wanting to someone who loves to dance. I don't remember if I added the reading requirement, but I would add it now.

This is so funny. We need more laughter like this in our lives on a daily basis. Mine would be - over the hill white girl with new found sensibilities seeking someone who likes to tinker, and by tinker she means fix things. She loves talking about baked goods but doesn’t bake. She walks but flat trails are the shiz. Revisiting old haunts like the dilapidated zoo where she grew up is a weird hobby, oh she loves weird hobbies too but no tooth collectors please. There’s such a thing as too weird. Oh and one more thing. Must love talking and by talking she means listening. All the women in her family, herself included, use up that female 10,000 words a day on the regular. Hit her up at 867-5309.

That was awesome, CK! 💕

Mine would be, “badass middle-aged chick, looking for someone she can boss around, and fetch her a cup of tea. I enjoy shopping alone, being alone, and want someone who doesn’t talk during movies. Looking for someone independent who likes to stand out in a crowd, because I will also be very visible and noticeable, but isn’t afraid to give me the spotlight.”

Alone time is so important! I love mine. I suppose all writers do.

I suggested to my husband (of 44 years) that separately we each fill out a dating profile and then see if an app would match us up! Never got around to it.

An interesting idea might be to check compatibility of data profiles every couple years or so .... things change!

I always read the “him seeking her” and “her seeking him” ads at the back of our local German free newspaper and quite a few of them basically resemble this. They’re mostly people 70+. The biggest difference is the men often will have some line like, “I’m 74, looking for a woman 45-55.” 🤣

Hahaha. Good one! Mine might say something like, “SWF, often bitchy, but only to the ones I love most. If you plan on decorating the house with your dirty socks, do not apply.” LOL

And if you come to bed with socks on block me.

I laughed at every line of this but my fav was that your favorite thing to do in bed is read🤣🤣🤣 Me too!!! I'm not sure what my profile would say but I know it wouldn't be this funny. Well done.
