OMG.

Okay - Cat - where are you?????? I know you will appreciate this story.

A new batch came in on EH. So, I go through the profiles. Delete delete delete.
- one had a belly the size of 2 pillows
- 3 more had something else I don't remember

BUT This one - he had a decent picture, lives close by, many of the same interests. But there is one small detail that made me delete so so fast:

"I have 2 boas that I've had for almost 10 years"

NO

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I hate snakes.

Sorry. Can't do it!! OMG - what are these guys thinking? I don't know of any girl who would put up with that to date a guy. Just don't. And certainly not me.

Edited to add - I remember one more thing that got one of the three above deleted - he is into "sexual astrology"!! And another one had some sort of bad job I didn't like. Ah - and the other one is a quadripelegic - is into wheelchair rugby - that is sad, but for me, no.

LOL!! Moon - you are funny!! Boats and boas - now that is 2 different equations!! I don't mind going out on a boat - many friends have them and it is lovely here. But he did say he dearly loves them as pets - so I knew it wasn't a typo - I bet it has been an issue or he wouldn't include that in his profile. It is like, take your pic, pal - a cold blooded reptile or a hot woman - you can't usually have both!!! LOL!!

If you have only deleted 10 you are but at the very beginning of the journey!! It is interesting to see what they write, though. It sounds by what you type that you have good intuition and you should be picky and listen to that!!

Exactly. And never mind having it in the SAME house - no way.

I did write, for the closed message, "because of something they said in their profile" - heck at least maybe after 40 of us write that he might get a clue.

I was riding my bike the other day - on one of those really long rides - had 2 guys behind me and was going like 20 mph - and I saw a snake out of the corner of my eye - it was dead but looked alive and I kept pedaling - because you can't stop or do anything crazy when someone is behind you on your wheel - but I screamed as loud as I could - and that flipped everyone out. But kept pedaling.

And right now we have one in the flipping pool - the size of a pencil - and it is probably dead in the skimmer - am in search of a guy to get it out!! LOL!!

NO snakes. NO! I just knew you guys would agree!!!!
