Most recent craiglist ads in my area for this type of arrangement. It seems they've cleaned up the section, as these aren't nearly as interestingly weird as they once were. the 2nd ad appears to have been flagged a few times, so I am assuming that old guy has been causing a bit of an issue with some of the respondents.

Get thrown out with no notice for any reason with no recourse because you have no legal right to live there. That sounds super fun.

Here is my attempt.

Wanted: Personal assistant.
My career has gotten to the point where there are some big throbbing issues that I no longer desire to handle all by myself. In an attempt to alleviate the enormous pressure that has been building up, I am looking to hire a personal assistant on a short term basis. The ideal applicant will be female and in good enough physical shape to handle the fast, then slow, then faster, faster, faster, pace that my lifestyle demands. The most important attributes for successful applicant to possess are open mindedness, flexibility, endurance, and discretion.

Please contact me at 555-6969 to schedule an interview.

Welcome to modern dating. Such ads probably are quite common in SoCal. Sometimes it's women making it clear they want free housing. I suppose it's a ploy that often happens in expensive areas. Disgusting things like that made me stop visiting the relationships section of Craigslist.

Might as well add:

Runaways and large breasted teens to the head of the line.

Reminds me of a young girl we had the misfortune of finding out she made her extra cash from
"Send request and $5 and get pictures (anal $3 extra)" Ads on craigslist

At least she was safe in her home doing this

Because getting laid over rides shame. At this point they are desperate and all bets are off. I have seen adds on craigs list right before I met my gf that had a kid and their ex beat them up and they wanted off the street and stated they were great in bed. I have a 2 bed room and if I had not met me gf I would do it. Sex is sex, its better than your hand and if they are willing to stick around they could become a life mate.

People make these posts as if they assume everyone has 10 people swooning over them and that bribery is low. Sorry that's not reality. You get one life to live and I don't want to spend it not getting laid.

You mean like married men whos wives decide they don't want them there anymore lol. Nope its not super fun. I guess if they wanted too they could sign a month to month lease so that she would have 30 days but then how does the guy protect his stuff from being stolen if things go awry?
