Reading over some of the commentary on the Oireachtas contributions on the civil partnership bill, I came across a very odd comment indeed. One comment I presume intended as a joke and in all fairness it probably would tickle the funny bone of a few people, the idea suggested was to place an ad on a website for a named figure saying that they were looking for love and such.
The irony is that the same individual claimed a few years back that they were taking legal action to protect their reputation when someone else allegedly did much the same thing to them. And their lesson from all this hurt and anguish is to suggest that doing it to someone else would be mighty craic altogether! I can just imagine the reaction to this being brought up in any court proceedings.
So let’s remember boys and girls, it’s ok for a person to pretend to be someone else and put an ad on-line seeking someone for companionship and other but it’s entirely different if someone does it to them! What is sauce for the goose is not sauce for the gander.
