In her quest for love, a 70-year-old widow decided to give marriage another shot. She put up a straightforward ad in the local newspaper, stating she was looking for a husband within her age group who was caring, loyal, energetic, and willing to meet her in person.
“Husband wanted! Must be in my age group, must not beat me, must not run around on me and must still be good in bed. All applicants, please apply in person,” the ad read.
The very next day, a knock at her door grabbed her attention. With excitement and a hint of nervousness, she opened it to find an older man sitting comfortably in a wheelchair, lacking both arms and legs.
“You aren’t seriously proposing yourself, are you?” she asked, clearly surprised. “Look at you – you’re without legs!”
This story highlights the surprising twists that life can bring, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. Sometimes, what we least expect ends up being the key to our happiness.
However, the elderly man responded with a lighthearted and genuine remark: “That’s right! With no legs, I can’t wander off.”
