Romantic
FOUND by Robin Fox
I was looking for a building I could use for a business idea when my realtor took me inside an old laundry mat. I found this tacked to the bulletin board. I love that he added "Romantic" as an afterthought, and then what someone wrote on it after they read it.

Not only should the roomate be romantic, but there is a weight requirement as well.
I think this person is looking for a little more than a roommate. Weird, but funny.
i like the weight requirement, as if he had some weird mathematical equation that told him he could support 110-135 lbs. a month for $200. i like the fact he clearly states "some food included", just so you know he's not one of those "all-you-can-eat" freaks.
Hey, Lee, he's gotta keep her in the 110 - 135 lb. range! Thats why there's only "some food included."
i'd love to know if anyone replied.
Maybe *he* is 110-135 lbs, and he wanted her to be 110-135 lbs so he could wear her cloths when she was not at home.
Sounds like this guy/girl wants someone to pay them 200$ a month to be their live-in call girl.
Oh..and no fatties.
this is amazing.i once found a similar ad. it advertised for a straight female to come share this girl's flat. the rent was free but she did only have one single bed in the whole place.
i considered it for far too long. free rent...
Hahahaha!! That is the best roommate posting ever! It's pretty obvious they're looking for more than a roomie. Why not just get a girlfriend?
hmmmm rent free you say? Did he give a height requirement? Cuz I fit into the 110-135lbs but I am only four feet tall.
against my better judgement, i went roommate hunting on craig's list - there are tons of posts just like this. lonely guys looking for female "roommates" who are "fun, outgoing and down to earth." no mention of fiscal responsibility or cleanliness. they usually include pictures of themselves posing seductively in front of their car. classic.
i once saw a roommate wanted ad for a "secluded" cabin in the woods... the man said he needed someone to talk to. creepy.
Does anyone here have a pager?
Does anyone here have a pager?
This is a great find. I loved the comments from all of you, with special thanks to Lee and Angry Canadian who made me laugh out loud.
Last time I wore a pager was in 1977. I always considered them a mark of servitude, right down there with having to carry 50 keys on your belt. It seemed cool for about two days.
But I guess if you were lucky enough to have pager number 455-0000, you'd want to keep it forever. Even after they stopped offering the service. It's prestigious. It's classy. It suggests the owner is a very important person. Likely a chick magnet as well.
Like Molly, I get a "you'll be very comfortable shackled in my basement" vibe from the handwriting. "And romantic." Priceless.
cree-pay.
My first thought when I saw this find was of a set up by some kids for their Dad, like to try and find him a girlfriend who would cook and clean the house. But, then I decided that maybe I watched too many Disney movies as a kid.
Does anyone else think the age requirement is a little odd?!? 42-52. Not 40-50, not 45-55.... maybe this guy is 47 and he is only comfortable with someone +/- 5 years his age?
Thanks, Angry Canadian! You made me laugh...
In my opinion, this is a total rip-off. I mean, come on. $200/month with only "some food" included??? Gimme a break.....

I have seen many adverts like this one in my life...in the back of fanzines, in the Nickelnik papers, and now on craigslist. Some guys just have no concept on how to go about meeting a potential girlfriend. They are creepy. This ad is creepy, yet amusing.
Great find.
I'd like to know where someone can live for $200 a month including utilities! I pay more than that a WEEK.
Bizarre little ad though... and kind of sad.
there was an ad here localy for"free room and board to a slim woman with drivers licence" i recognized the number as on of my dads hunting frinds
Ewww Daryn, how traumatizing!!!
I like the weight lmao.. NO FATTIES. Probably an old guy looking for someone.
i like how 'female' is written twice. maybe someone else wrote over it? i would have no idea why, but it's an idea. 'cause it's obviously a different writing tool...or maybe the guy went back and did it, making sure 'female' was specified after a guy applied. ha, i have no imagination, at least not when i try to.
This was found at a laundromat in Waterford, PA. It is always on their bulletin board and has been for about 5 years. It has probably been replaced tons of times with one almost exactly like it. It has been a long fruitless search I guess. Wonder if he upgraded to phone yet.
I like how someone in blue is questioning how much HE pays...
