Advice on What to Put in Your Personal Ads

Listed here are some very important tips if you are going to play the personals:

1. If you're marriage minded, don't hesitate to specify that. If you're gentle, affectionate, conservative, religious, a one-woman man, include this information. If you don't believe in divorce, it can't hurt to mention it. Anything that will get across what a thoughtful, loving and responsible, husband you'll be will help your case. But be honest! Don't say any of these things unless they're actually true.

2. If you don't have any good points you can honestly refer to, then you shouldn't be using the personals in the first place...unless you're only looking for a pen pal and aren't too choosy about who you get.

3. When you specify the age range you want to hear from, don't limit it to the ages of the ladies you think will be interested in you. Leave that up to them to decide. If you think only ladies 45-55 will answer, but you're willing to consider interested 25 year olds, then say you'd like to hear from ladies any age up to 55. You might be surprised at some of the responses you'll receive.

4. I recommend that you include any information about yourself which might be hard for some ladies to accept. For example, the fact that you are handicapped, or divorced, or unwilling to have children. This will cut down the number of replies you can expect, but there's no point in wasting everyone's time. You're better off to know that any ladies who contact you find your circumstances acceptable. Just be sure to stress your strong points. If your handicap has provided you with a disability pension for life, mention that. If you divorced your wife for infidelity or alcoholism, or if it was she who divorced you, say so.
