Newspaper Ad From 1865 Reveals What A Man With ‘A Good Set Of Teeth’ Is Looking For In A Wife
Dating is literally the worst, right?
The apps, the money, the awkwardness, the profile pics, and OMG, the bios?!?
And, look, I get it. It’s not easy to write a “great” personal profile.
Or even a halfway decent one, apparently.
But way the heck back in 1865, at least one dude had it all figured out. (His dating profile, that is. Not his love life — because apparently dating has been tough FOREVER.)
And, just so you know, this photo is of a random dude from 1865 – NOT the actual person who wrote the ad below.
In a post shared by Twitter user Max Roser, it turns out this gentleman caller placed the following personal ad back in 1865, and honestly?! It’s so pure and perfect.
Let’s break down some of the highlights, shall we?
“I […] have a good set of teeth.”
Health is very important, so this is definitely good news. I mean, he probably had better teeth than I do, TBH.
