    I'd also stay away from hookers. The last three I dated only stayed for an hour and took all my money when they left. I'm pretty sure they cheated on me too. Two of them were on the phone talking to another guy before they left.

    :laugh:

    Do male hookers give orgasms or just have one and fall asleep??

    Nobody had economists on the list of professions to stay away from!

    I think it's because it's so obvious that it goes without saying. Ben Stein said Dominique Straus Kahn wasn't guilty of rape because he was an economist and as a group we aren't interested enough in sex to do such a thing. That commentary is actually worse than the joke that you can tell when the economists have a convention in town because all the hookers go on vacation. The other bad joke is about an the economist who refused to get his wedding ring engraved because it ruins the resale value.

    We already mentioned prostitutes, assumed that more or less covered politicians, as well.

    Ive read many of Janie's posts...and I dont disagree with all of them, but she is leaving out a huge part of the equation. Namely how and why some of the military guys think the way she portrays them.

    Remember there are 3 sides to every story...he said, she said and the truth somewhere mixed in!

    And....I've worked in and with the military for 15 years. You will always have your bad apples. I know a lot of great military men that get a bad rep because of what a few have done. Just as with any man that you meet for the first time, proceed with caution and watch for red flags. But, when you find a good one, he will be the most loyal and devoted man you will ever meet. Just know that it might take a little longer to get there, because they have been through so much more than you or I could ever imagine.

    Working with cops and correctional officers - I would say RUN as far away from them. Very few of them remain faithful, always sniffing out for "fresh meat". Where I work is really like Peyton Place - who is screwing who, etc

    This could not be more true. Between inmates and the staff drama sometimes I can't believe they actually pay me to come to work. I said I'd NEVER date anyone from work. And look at me.............totally doing it!!!

    I think teachers are generally a safe bet. They seem to be good with communication, conflict resolution, and they tend to be good with kids. They seem to get a sick a lot though since they are around so many germs.

    I definitely try to stay away from strippers, bartenders, and anybody that works nights. I've never dated a lawyer but I feel like they would e pretty argumentative and use it to their advantage. I'm friends with a lot of doctors and all they seem to talk about anymore is doctor stuff. Outside of the medical industry they have no social skills.

    I feel better knowing that the job I'm going to end up with makes me a "safe bet". Whew. Relief.

    My friend is marrying a lawyer and he's amazing to her. There's a family friend who is a lawyer and she feels like she has to argue everything all the time. It's her way or no way. It might just be her personality and not her job though I'm sure that plays a role. I live near bases and have friends who have dated Marines. I dated one a while ago too. My good friend is married to one...so is her sister. They both have kids and have a hard time when they are gone. I'm not saying military men are bad, but there are bad ones out there just like in any field. I love the medical field, but not sure I could handle being with a doctor and his schedule. I work with engineers every day - electrical, chemical and such - and I have to say they are awesome guys.

    With all the stuff I see about teachers having sex with students, I could never date a teacher. My ego couldn't handle getting dumped for a 14-year-old.

    Ooh fun game!!

    From personal experience...

    Avoid military types..especially when overseas. Pretty much all married or divorced with major baggage. Stereotype yes..true 9/10 times.

    Avoid university professors. Oh intelligence is sexy, but you have no idea how they can go on and on and on about the most boring of details regarding their work...and they really lack in social skills and graces. Sigh.

    Agree with widows. It is heartbreaking...particularly if you happen to be the kind of nurturing individual who wants to help them love again...save yourself the time and emotional exhaustion.

    Men involved in highly nurturing jobs who focus on children or excel at domestic skills. Yup, he will pick the kids or the dog over you and it won't feel good.

    Cops and lawyers are hot. I like both but I think I have a little authority fetish! Agree they can be a little arrogant or hard to get to know...but I kinda dig that..

    I couldn't disagree more. University professors are exciting and fun people and uber sexy!

    Lawyers, on the other hand, argue for a living... how much fun is that in a relationship? Ugh!

    <--- University professor with an ex-BF who is a lawyer :tongue: :flowerforyou:

    No real point to make. Just thought I'd highlight this part of your excellent post... ;-)

    I think you're looking at .00001% of teachers who do this. And they need psychiatric care.

    Yeah, I agree. I avoid widows too. Seems to me that they'll never replace the love of their life. Although, I dont think that my logic is logical!! :laugh:

    Oh no...of course I would see this here. The guy I am interested in has been widowed for 5 years. :(

    A couple of late additions to the list......

    For women, NBA/NFL/MLB/NHL professional athletes.

    For men, attractive female sideline reporters for major TV networks. They may be top tier in looks, but the travel schedule (potentially not enough time spent together) and rumors of/potential for sex with pro players probably make it a difficult proposition in many cases.

    Thanks for the advise. I live in a town of 125,000 with no major universities. It is surrounded by corn and soy fields for about 60 miles in any direction. If a sideline reporter ever relocates here, I'll make sure to avoid her like the plague.

    Isn't think kind of like telling a woman to avoid George Clooney because he's not the marrying type? I'll take my chances thank you very much... you know if I ever meet him :wink:

    Sooooo I found out that my cop fella is on POF. Okay, cool. Well he's been chatting it up with MY cousin!!! I saw him on her FB as added the other day. I asked her how she knew him and she told me.

    Kind of weirded out so Ive been ignoring his texts now. He's also only 26. Next!!!

    WOW! My son's father is a musician, former Army and Navy, and is a cop. I obviously was going for them all in one fell swoop. lol

    I live in the biggest military installation in the world, so avoiding military guys is impossible. I like dating military. They are usually polite, fit, and have a consistent income. There are assbags but that counts for all professions. I tend to be attracted to guys in authoritarian professions. That, and the uniforms are hot. :blushing:

    Avoid married women with a hunter for a husband... I sprained my ankle jumping out of a 2nd story window once half naked, wasn't worth the hassle.

    Less guns to shoot you with... I was just kidding btw.

    You have all successfully eliminated 80% of the occupations out there... maybe it would be easier to list professions to go for??

    I tend to go for the married husbands whose wives don't hunt.
