Extremely good looking, with a stable job, romantic, loves kids, helps in household chores, and most of all God loving.... are these qualities you look for in a partner? Or are you satisfied with one or two good qualities. I have received this in an email. Please read on and see if you're the same as the woman in the story. HUSBANDS FOR SALE ! A store that sells husbands has just opened in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates. You may visit the store ONLY ONCE ! There are six floors and the attributes of the men increase as the shopper ascends the flights. There is, however, a catch . . .. you may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up a floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building! So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men have jobs and love the Lord. The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, and love kids. The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, and are extremely good looking. "Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads: Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop- dead good looking and help with the housework. "Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!" Still, she goes to the fifth floor and sign reads: Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop- dead gorgeous, help with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor and the sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor 4,363,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store. Watch your step as you exit the building, and have a nice day! Please send this to all men for a good laugh and to all the women who can handle the truth!

haha i have read this before.... but to answer your questions: having a good looking partner is goodd, but not everything. having a partner with a lot of money won't hurt, as long as he knows how to treat me well. but i would like for him to be honest, loyal, thoughtful, committed, leader of the home, inspiration, full of wisdom, and of course, a lover. thank God, my husband is that. i am still praying for his financial freedom and i know in my heart, he is getting there. :-)

This is very cute. I have copied it and am sending to some of my offline friends. I like a good joke and this one is on the top of the list. Also it is so right, really. I am a woman and I can relate.

Nice to know that you liked the joke. There is another joke that I got from email and I put in one of my posts, ... about 'If you and your partner can't have a child, would a babymaker be an alternative'. Hope you find time to read and sure you will like the joke there. Appreciated your posting a response here.

LOL i've read this a long time ago but still, it gave me the laugh. ^__^;; well, as a woman, i guess this might be generally true. but still, it depends on the person. if i were to go to that store, i would have stopped on the third floor. i would have settled for that. since i know that men with a lot of good qualities are so rare and the store might ran out of it so i better hurry up and decide before there's nothing left for me. LOL and i'm a person who wants usually plays it safe so i might think that there would be a catch if i would go higher and the item might be so expensive i wouldn't be able to afford it. ^__^;; so i guess i'll stop at the third floor and i will admit that women are impossible to please. LOL

i like my partner to be a understanding wife and very low profile, can accept what i am and what i have only. the important things is we love each other, no matter how life we are going in and out, we must always share positive things in life.
