There are all kinds of cops, from Dirty Harry to Officer Friendly. There are those who serve and protect and those who service and protect. Today we hear from four women who have intimate knowledge of our men in blue. Or khaki.

Kim: I've been dating a cop for over a year. He's actually the third cop I've known on a personal level and the second one I've dated. The first one was a nice enough guy, but the relationship wasn't going anywhere.
The guy I've been dating for more than a year is someone I never would have picked if I saw him on a dating Web site. Due to serendipitous events, we ended up having lunch one day, and we really connected — mentally, emotionally and spiritually. We met for coffee or lunch for a few weeks, and we just went nuts over each other.
I have to admit that it's very interesting when we're in public. There've been times we've gotten together right after work. He threw a jacket over his uniform, but you could still see it. I'd catch the unfriendly vibes from some cop-haters. Being with him has really opened my eyes to how cops are often perceived as stereotypes, not individuals.

Megan: I'm a typical "stupid civilian," as cops refer to most civilians. We simply don't fit into their world. At least that's what a particular cop I dated for more than two years would tell me.
I couldn't do anything right as far as he was concerned. It was always the same garbage about how stupid I am, what a terrible parent I am, what a tramp I am. Then he would cry and become hysterical because I didn't respect him enough to change for him. It beat me up mentally. When I couldn't take it anymore, I walked.
I don't know about all other police officers, but this one was a complete mental case who told me that he wanted to be with God while he waved his gun at me. I considered writing a letter to his chief, but in this particular police department, they protect their own. More than half of them have a woman on the side. I know, I've met them.
I wrote my mother a note right after Stacy Peterson disappeared. I wrote, "Dear Ma, if I ever disappear, please look at him first." We haven't been together for more than a year, but I still find myself looking over my shoulder. He doesn't know where I currently live, but when you're a cop, you can find out anything.

Colleen: I dated a cop. Before he was a cop, he was a Marine, which is very common. He cheated on me.
What makes this even funnier is that my mother was married to a cop long before I was born, and he cheated on her. She warned me about it, but I didn't listen. I will never date another cop. They're completely impervious to the laws of society, morality and common sense.

Julie: I married a cop. He's a loving husband, an amazing person and a good cop. Being a cop means he has a dependable income that allows him to retire early with a solid pension. And he has a set of handcuffs that makes things at home very interesting every now and again.

I'm glad she is smart enough to realize that...and I don't mean solely on how they do the job. Colleen sure is quick to pass judgment on everyone else and it seems Megan does too.

Does that mean female cops are assholes too? I mean if they're going to stereotype I guess we have to make it fully equal right?

Some people will never understand, nor do they want to...plain and simple.
