I don't want to scare guys off in my ad but don't want to waste my time either. I want a guy who can cook and clean and share the chores. Is there a way to say this with humor? I went on a date with one guy and on the first date he told me he had a felony and was a drug user. I don't want that to happen again. I thought about writing "Sorry but if you do drugs, drink like a fish, smoke, have a felony, or need Prozac then I'm not the right girl for you". Does anyone have any ideas of how I can get this message across with humor? What kind of things should I include in my ad about me and what I'm looking for in a partner? I'm trying to attract men who are interested in a long term relationship and eventual marriage.

steff what you said was great ,just add some of your talents and remind men that your great to be around and have an opinion ,and would like to meet men that treat a women as an equal not as a slave , tell men you want a relationship based on good morals and standards.by the way just change the wording then your not the type of addict iam llooking for,iam looking for a man that will be adicted to me for the rest of our lives,and if you cant handle that then step aside ,because iam moving on , and dont need no monkeys on my back. to the point , be blunt ,i have wants needs and desires if your a man and cant handle my special needs then move over and let a real man take over

The fun thing about online dating is that you CAN say stuff like that. Believe me, there are lots of guys out there who don't do drugs, or drink like crazy for smoke or have a felony or need Prozac who will read that and be impressed with a girl who's not afraid to say what she wants. Don't settle for anything less. The only guys who are going to think you're being too picky are the ones that fall into those bad categories and you don't want them anyways.

Well, it's hard, because you don't really tell us anything about YOU... only about what you don't want in a man. Hmmm. Maybe that's the problem. You need to focus on finding someone that you would be right for, not just someone who will be right for you: "Ask not what your man can do for you, ask what you can do for your man." Try something like this...
"Hi, I'm a 35+ SF seeking SM 30-45 for possible long-term relationship. I'm no supermodel, but I've been told I've got (a) killer [list best physical feature(s)] and I clean up well. I'm sober and drug, felony, and Prozac free. (If you're not, don't apply.) I'm looking for someone who will enjoy sharing companionship, recreation, and chores. Cook with me, help do the dishes, then sweep me off my feet! I enjoy ice sculpting (you know what they say about cold hands!). I also like modern Russian literature and horseback riding. If you do too, maybe we can "Chekhov" a date and ride off in the sunset together!"

STAY STRONG AGAINST HIM I can speak from experience- my husband abandoned me about a year ago, about 14 months after I was diagnosed with some serious health problems. He kept feeding me the "i need some time, then we can get back together...." Two months after he left, I found his profile on a singles site (status:divorced). I created a profile "maria" with EVERYTHING i knew he would be attracted to- he contacted it within an hour!!! we talked a few times and made some sexual advances (him and "maria") and in real life i even asked him if we were still being faithful to each other, he said "of course!". short cut through a 3 month hospitalization where he called me once. when i got out, i called him and confronted him about cheating. he swore up and down he wasnt (blah blah blah...) then i recited his profile word for word, and he just went dead silent. I lost my temper and yelled at him, and asked all the boo hoo questions (how could you do this to me, what did i do wrong, etc.) he STILL DENIED HAVING THE SITE. i was able to find his credit card records showing his membership purchases (the credit card that *I* pay!!), along with other suspicious charges. i filed for divorce a week later. 8 months later we are still going through court, as he refuses to provide me with health insurance, even though he knows i am very ill. my lawyer said that the online profile cant prove infidelity, and cant be used in court, even though i have all of the documentation. for your questions" yes, he is stupid. and he obviously thinks that you are an idiot- does he really not think that you could figure it out? now i might say some hurtful things and i apologize, but it seems to me that: 1. he doesnt really want to come home, if he did he would be concentrating on fixing things, not looking for other people to let him do what he wants 2. he doesnt love you the way a man should love his wife if he left you, especially during an illness 3. do you really want these kind of games and BS around your kids!?!? 4. he is selfish, plain and simple. sweetie, go ahead and make a profile. pretend to be whoever you want to be. i admit that at first i felt bad, that i was lying and deceiving, but honestly i am glad that i took that step. it proved what a dick my husband is. and it felt good to have that unknown control. and it was really fun to tell my girlfriends about the LIES he would tell "maria". just be careful- you might end up finding out more than you want to. and he might talk badly about his "ex wife" or whatever he calls you- that was what hurt me the most. sorry to have been so long- the most important thing i want to say is DONT EVER BLAME YOURSELF FOR THIS! no woman deserves crap like this. do what you feel you have to for YOU and your KIDS. eff him. good luck!

honey, like it says, it's a dating site, that's why you date , to find out who is right for you. it isn't a marriage site for a reason. I mean what do you think that 10 bucks a month is suppose to do for you? it helps you meet people. it's your job to sort them out, some women like the alcoholic druggy felony types. most people on dating sites have been there done that before (marriage) and don't go there looking for that again. hey high school is over, no one to cart a bus load of prospects in for you to pick and choose from. you gotta get out and look on your own now. scary isn't it, attracting someone on your own merits. you can't go to the clubs any more, now you gotta hang out in the bars. that old bald beer belly felon is starting to look pretty good after a few beers and a few nights of re-runs on the tv at home alone.

Then you have to write it in such a way that it attracts the right kind of guy but doesn't make him think you are a domineering woman. I'd be happy to help anytime.
