Singles ladies: doesn’t the pic above just make you want to vom? LOL I’m dramatic. It’s cute – I guess – but I personally think that unless he’s the man of your dreams/marriage-material, fall is probably the worst time to meet someone new; cue holidays and New Years and V-Day (if it lasts that long).
I read about these two (amazing and witty) ladies that posted a fun ad on Craiglist (apparently flagged for removal – why?) recruiting “Fall Boyfriends” . Even though I stand by my comment above, I do think this is pretty spot-on in terms of what a GREAT fall boyfriend can be:
Seeking Fall Boyfriends
2 smart, funny, attractive girls each looking for a fall boyfriend with chill group of bro friends, now is the time you must start dating someone in order to spend the holidays together/go on ski trips/have a NYE kiss you’re stoked on.
Labor Day has happened, we are saying goodbye and filtering out our casual summer, meet up at 2 a.m. hook ups and are looking for boys we might be able to stand being sober around.
Needed: 2 males interested in something steady/serious-ish as the weather fades from hot, humid, and care-free to crisp, chill Patagonia vest season. Interested parties should have a window in their bedroom and want to cuddle with the window slightly open to let the fresh autumn air in while a fall scented candle (that I’ll buy for you, babe) fills the room with cozy comfort.
Requirements
1. Chill group of guy friends (preference will be given to bros who come from the same group of friends, just because that makes it easier and more fun for double date brunching)
2. 27 and older
3. 6 feet or taller (if you’re 5’11” but have a personality to make up for the height difference, willing to consider it. Any shorter? Don’t apply.)
4. Wardrobe should include: Driving mocs, Barbour coat, Half-Zips (at least 3, please send pics if possible), Ray-Bans (Wayfarers or Clubmastesr preferred, but open to other styles), loafers, Patagonia vest(s), Vineyard Vines, basketball shorts for me to sleep in
5. College education. Ivy league preferred. Def in a frat or played a sport (lacrosse, crew, tennis, etc.)
6. Probs spent at least 4 weekends in Montauk over the summer
7. Activities can include but are not limited to:
- Apple Picking
- Sunday Fundays
- Borrowing your pullover and returning it after an indecent amount of time, if at all
- Taking selfies in Patagonia vests/taking selfies while doing all activities #fall #boyfriendweather
- Watching football (aka me getting drunk while you watch football, and you thinking it’s so adorable when I wear jeans and Converse to the bar and get blackout in your team’s hat.) *sneakers show how chill and laid back I am < this is why it’s kinda essential for the two boys to be friends so me and my friend can blackout together and I won’t get bored.
- Cooking – Instagramming dish with captions such as “Fall night with my babe @yourhandle *heart emoji all the fall emojis*”
- Brunching outdoors until weather permits
- Strange how the night moves, with autumn closing in – (If you don’t know that song, don’t apply)
Looking forward to meeting you!
