Big-city girl looking for small-town love? Hardworking farmer with little time to find that special someone?
An Ohio man may have the answer for your dating needs. His online dating service, farmersonly.com, has profiles of more than 1,800 people from around the nation, from nature lovers to farmers too busy working sunrise to sunset, year-round, to find love the old-fashioned way. “Single farmers need to find someone who can relate to what they do. Those people are out there. They just need to meet ‘em,” said the site’s owner, Jerry Miller of the Cleveland suburb of Beachwood. Miller, 52, created the site in May after listening to a divorced farmer speak of her dating woes. She tried other online dating sites but couldn’t find a Mr. Right who understood her rural lifestyle. Miller isn’t a farmer but his day job as an advertising man for clients including the Alpaca Owners & Breeders Association takes him to plenty of farms.
Newcomers to the site are offered a free 30-day premium membership. After that, the cost to remain on the site varies by time from $9.99 for a month to $59.99 for a year.
Many members are from Ohio, including “farmgirljuls,” a 22-year-old Wooster woman. She says she knows her way around a milking parlor and a tractor seat. And she’s looking for “a good ol’ farmboy.”
Others looking for love come from rural areas around Kent, Medina and North Ridgeville. There is plenty of interest from other parts of the nation, too. “CountryPlowBoy,” a 49-year-old man from Caldwell, Idaho, describes himself this way: “Me, well I’m a successful farmer, although I sometimes wonder why. Easygoing and laid back, youthful and athletic.” Maybe he’s a match for “JerseyCowLover,” a 29-year-old woman from Buffalo, Mo., whose profile reads, in part, “‘Til the cows come home ... Or I go and get them for the night milking. I’m just your simple hardworking dairywoman. My life is my cows and family.” Nick Miller, not related to Jerry Miller, is a 35-year-old divorced farmer from Portage County who said he’s just looking for companionship. He raises beef cattle and grows 300 acres of crops in Rootstown while working full time as an electrical engineer. He said that leaves little time for meeting women, and those he does meet usually aren’t thrilled with his long hours and sometimes messy — and smelly — farm work. “It turns a lot of people off,” Miller says. “Compatibility is tough.”
Even cowgirls get the blues...
They crashed the server..
She thinks my tractor's sexy!
Just wondering how this guy managed to meet a divorced farmer in Beechwood. Lotsa places in Beechwood to get Gucci'd and Pucci'd, or find an authentic Jewish deli, but I don't think there's a single Agway or Tractor Supply store in town....
"I'm too sexy for my...overalls. Too sexy for my overalls...."
But how, Ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm after they've seen Paree?
Instead of looking for neeedles in a haystack, if the men would simply look for sex in the haystack, they should find it.
That is what my cousins did on the farms in Ohio. They were in some of these cities mentioned--Kent, Medina and others.
Why should men look for needles when the farmgirls are looking for sex in the haystack? That is the way it was in Ohio back in the 60s and 70s.
C'mon man. Prioritize!
I can't believe I just opened up this thread! Last night we ate at a restaurant which serves at least 200-300 prime rib meals a night. (AND THE SERVINGS WERE HUGE) I felt like a child when I asked my husband..WHERE DOES ALL THE MEAT COME FROM. I know it's a stupid question, and I know the answer, but every restaurant, every supermarket, every fast food restaurant...there's tons of meat. It just seems unimaginable to me. WHERE DOES ALL THE MEAT COME FROM. Are there any meat farmers out there? I want an answer!
Really?
Really!
Meat farmers?
WELL I KNOW THAT!!! LOL! But when I think how many cows have to be ... CATLLED...it boggles my mind, that's all.
Woooo BABY! MORE COWBELL!
Or will he just wear camo?
Now I'm going to have Kenny Chesney going through my head all day...
There could be worse people going through your head!
Well....."the whole town said that he should have used red
But it looked good to Charlene
In John Deere green"
