I am having feelings today about, how it use to be in my life and how it could be. I got this joke from a friend today and it reminded me of how single I am. To a point it is sad and depressing but in another way it could be better. Let me explain I got married back in the 70's and was divorce in the 80's. Let me just say my husband and I were together about 8 years. I had a very serious relationship that lasted about 5 years but other then that I really have been single for a long time. Now when I read this joke I thought to myself if I had been that woman back in the 80's I would of gone to the top floor. Now that I have been single this long I think I would of stopped on the 4th floor. Does this mean that I am getting older and willing to settle for less. Sometimes I think to myself there is nothing wrong with settling. At least I won't be alone and will have some company. So here is the joke that started all this and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. My smile for the day. :)))

The Husband Store

A store that sells new 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 this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the product increases as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next 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.


The second floor sign reads:
F! loor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.


The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.


"Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.
She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework.


"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it!"
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak.

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes on to the sixth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 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.


To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner also opened a New Wives store just across the street.


The first floor has wives that love sex.


The second floor has wives that love sex and have money.


The third through sixth floors have never been visited.
