When you’ve been alone for a while, it can be uncomfortable and frightening to put yourself back out there and look for romantic partners.

The most important lesson to learn is, of course, to never pass judgment on people without first giving them a chance to explain themselves.

As a result, I’ve made the decision to tell you about a hilarious article I recently read. Specifically, a widow in her 70s who has placed a newspaper ad in search of a new husband.

She was at home one day when the doorbell rang. She had no way of knowing, however, who would be on the other side.

Make sure you read the entire hilarious joke down below and wait until the end for the punchline.

In a newspaper advertisement, she wrote:

“Wanted! Husband!” Must be in my age group, must not beat me, must not run around on me and must still be good in bed. Please submit your applications in person.

The doorbell rang the next day, and she answered it. She was shocked to discover an elderly man in a wheelchair when she opened the door. He was missing both limbs.

“You’re not really asking me to consider you, are you?” widow inquired, “I can’t believe it, you don’t have any legs!”

With a grin on his face, the old man said, “Therefore, I cannot run around on you!”

Saying, “You don’t have any arms either!” “She snorted.”

The elderly man grinned once more and declared, “Therefore, I can never beat you!”

To which she raised an eyebrow and inquired, “Are you still good in bed?”

The elderly man sat back and asked, “I rang the doorbell, didn’t I?” with a broad grin.
