Though Betoota Ponds bloke Mitchell Ellis [34] is on the lookout for a root, he still wants the ladies to know he’s a good guy, and does plan on settling down and having kids…just not with them.
Taking to his Bumble profile, Mitch has made sure to let any prospective dates know of this by selecting both ‘looking for something casual’ and ‘want kids someday’, which though sounds a bit confusing at first, is perfectly explainable.
“I’m not looking for anything serious”, Mitch tells our reporter, “but I also don’t want to scare the ladies off.”
“I do want kids one day…like, maybe in five years or something.”
“But I’m just looking for a casual fling at the moment.”
When asked why he bothers putting the kid part on his profile at all, Mitch pauses heavily before answering.
“Well…I still want them to know I’m an alright bloke, you know?”
“Like, I want a wife.”
“Just not with anyone I’d meet right now.”
“I think it’s good to have that small window of hope though, as I’d prefer to have a casual fling with someone who has traditional values too.”
Our reporter says that doesn’t really make much sense.
“Look”, he says, throwing his hands in the air in exasperation, “I want a few women to tide me over until I’m ready to settle down.”
“I just thought I’d be polite and let them know ahead of time.”
More to come.
