I'm never going out with a Policeman

Philippines
April 24, 2012 7:27pm CST
Hey guys, I remembered when I was at my late teens, I kind of swore to myself that I'm never going to have a policeman for a boyfriend. I have this impression that being with a policeman gets you into a chaotic world. Especially, if he's in a higher rank and has strong principles. I'm sure a lot of druglords and crime masters would be after his life. I wouldn't want to be caught in the middle of any trouble he's in. Also, in our place, policemen are stereotyped to be polygamous. Whether or not all that is true, those were crazy thoughts I had before but I still would not want to go out with a Policeman, if given the choice. Aside from policemen, I also didn't like seaman, politicians, a famous actor or basketball player...crazy

Good idea! I know many police officers, I used to work at a police department. They have a very high rate of divorce and alot of them cheat on their wives. Besides that you would always worry about them being out there in that dangerous profession. Also, they tend to have an attitude, it comes with the job. You have to have an attitude to deal with what they deal with on a daily basis. So steer clear! Trust me! Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

Well, let me ask you though, since you've been around these people. Why is it so commong with policemen to have extramarital affairs? Do they really go out and seek for that, or do women just flock around them a lot and they get tempted?

I don't like policemen also. I hate to see them anywhere in streets in here. Last month i got a problem with cops. They told me that i didn't turn the yellow lamps of my bike when i turned left, that time the green light on allow people turn left also. They forced me to turn off my bike and go to the sidewalk. Then i asked what is my fault? they said i didn't turn the yellow lamps of my bike. When i re-turned on my bike, the yellow lamps of my bike still on for the left side. Then they told me just turn yellow lamps on when i re-turned on my bike. The real is i didn't do. The yellow lamps is turned on when i turned left already. Then they force me give out my documents such as license, the certificate of the owner bike. And they they told me go to their office to pay money to get my documents. It is such crazy thing that i got in my life!!!

That's a very annoying experience. We also have a lot of crook cops here in our place. They all have their own style and I just hate it.

you are not the only one having those thoughts my dear. hehe i had the same perception in my early adult years myself. i tried not to get involved with a military guy, fearing that there's always danger for his life. i didn't want a doctor also, because i don't like it if he'd be called in on emergencies and such. certainly not a politician, that's just one crazy public life i don't want to lead. not with a celebrity either, coz i'm a very private person and i don't want my entire life so open for public consumption. but as it happens, often when the hearts beat... they can't distinguish one's profession. i ended up with a celebrity-looking, politian-savvy and a conservative (like a military guy) doctor all rolled into one. at one point, i hated missing our new year's eve together as he was always called in for duty in the emergency unit. but hey life is about making choices... just gotta live with them. hehe

Me too! I always thought that policemen are dangerous and polygamous, they are not at all loyal to their partners and they're not trust-worthy. I won't like someone too if he's a policeman and a seaman, politician, and basketball player, all the things you said.

Ha, I remember someone telling me that my cousin told her hubby if he became a cop she would divorce him. So I guess he didn't become one. My friend married one and he cheated on her with an EMT. The ironicy of that is, when they divorced my friend also became an EMT.

First of all, what's EMT? Sorry for my ignorance. So, your friend took off with another cop, when he told his husband not to be one? That's odd.

Ok it’s your opinion I won’t argue with you. People are making choice of what kind or types of person they want in their lives. I respect for your decisions. But not all policemen are like that. But be wise in making your decision. Because if your destiny id to married a policeman you have no choice but to accept the truth.

I know, and in fact, I never liked guys who smoke, and yet I married a chain smoker. But, well, I love him and he makes me happy. Good thing, he isn't a cop.

yeah, me neither.. They lead dangerous lives and especially if he is a high officer or something, your house might be shot at at some time.. There amy be good sides to dating powerful people, but then i think the bad sides outweighs it.

Very true, lady1993. Just like the many true-to-life movies we see on TV, right. I rather live a quiet and happy life with a simple and private person.

You don't like policeman because they are stereotyped, I think because their job ask they to stereotype. Isn't it? Would you like going with a teacher? LOL I am a teacher.

The best way is... be careful in selecting a life-time partner...

That's right. And, I would say I've chosen a one of a kind man, and I'm happily married. And, Im glad he's not a cop!

That is the same with me I swore to myself too. When I was single then and has no boyfriend that time I swore to myself not to date younger guys. Now I'm married to a man younger than me and my first boy friend was a year younger than me too. So I've learned a lesson never to swear because the thing you don't like might be the one for you. hahaha.

Probably because we get to conscious about it and that's the first thing we notice. Not knowing, its what could attract us.
