Romance with snakes

I don't know if it is still there, but Fauna used to have a "lonely hearts club" for singles interesting in meeting others. And the best thing is that no non-herpers would ever even be looking at it, so they are pre-screened.
 
Zach...

First, I also say thanks for your service. Since you're in San Diego, I presume Navy or Marines? Do you know about Space-A travel? Ask around. It's a good deal.

Second, you HAVE been paying attention to Jenni and Maegan, right?

Did I mention Space-A?
 
There's a parallel corollary that comes from the culinary world that I can cite:

If your lover doesn't love garlic, then get another lover.

Snakes become a fundumental element in a persons very being. They become the stuf that makes it all worth while. When the house doesn't smell just a little like snakes, something is wrong. This is who you are. If a girl doesn't like snakes, what is she really saying. Why are you spending time with such strange creachers.

This is my girl, 37 years.

I think that finding an animal lover in general is the important thing. I was always an animal lover. I think Ive owned every legal animal possible. LOL But, I was never into snakes. I didn't hate them, just wasn't fond of them. Then about 4-5 years ago I got to hold one and that was it. I fell in love.
Now, I was with my husband before the addiction started but he's a great guy and an animal lover as well. He's not into the snakes like I am but he does care about them (worries if there is a problem or a non feeder). He won't hold them much or anything. And he doesn't mind if I get more either, as long as the money is there.

If any of you young men want to wait another 10-15 years I'm raising 3 snake/animal loving girls here. LOL Unfortunately my oldest wasn't exposed to them early enough and isn't fond of them at all. She tolerates them, though. I'm trying to turn her, but no luck yet. :(

Hang in there and wait for the right person, they are out there somewhere.
 
Is it just me or do you guys see a connection between Maegann and Zach?

Both Snake luvers, looking for a partner to share their love of snakes? hm?
 
Hang in there Zach...I know the feeling. I had similar issues prior to my husband. I was raising a LOT of birds at the time so was kinda considered the crazy bird lady. Add to that that I'm a redhead and ummmm....assertive, yeah that's it.

Men either couldn't cope with the zoo or would run screaming in horror about the mere idea of a woman being able to speak her mind bluntly about what she was looking for in a relationship.

Eventually the right one will come along, probably when you're not looking for it. Scott came along at a time when I SOOO was not looking for a relationship. Now the only limits I have on my zoo are space related.

Good luck...and maybe try a more subtle pick up line next time :)

I'm thinking bossy. Really sweet but bossy. :rofl: please don't hurt me
 
I'll keep you in mind if anything ever happens with me and my boyfriend...and err...you don't mind babies.

But you know we like talking outside the board *wink*
 
I can only add that I met my husband online and in my personal ad, the first line was, "If you don't like snakes and tattoos, look away now". Fair warning. My husband was so intrigued that he checked me out and he knew from my picture that I was the woman he would be with for the rest of his life. At that point I only had two snakes and a couple tats. He had none of either. 5 years later, I'm up to 100+ snakes and 8 tats. He has 3 tats. Although he isn't up on the latest lingo and morphs, he also worries about non-feeders and other problems, and loves to hold them and look at pics on breeders' sites. Plus, he's my enabler. "Hey, won't that one be good in your breeding projects? How much is it? Isn't your birthday coming up?". Yep, he's a keeper.
 
At 22, you have plenty of time to find your soul mate. I didn't find mine until I was 32. Kathy mentioned some excellent places to look for someone that likes herps. Pet shops are also good. I would like to add vet's offices as a place to look. You know the employees love animals, many of which are probably around your age and single, and then you also have all the clients bringing in their pets. And a word of advice, vet techs and vet assistants never pass up something like donuts in the morning or candy at any time. Trust me, I know. I even have many of the supply reps trained to arrive with yummies!

when i worked at a vets office it was the same way...everytime something came in the back the techs and assistants would swarm it!!
even the office people would find a reason to come in the back to sneak some cake, lol
 
Very well put....

Consider the "EWW..." a self screening process, lol! It helps you quickly weed out inappropriate possibilities so you don't waste your time on them!

I don't know where you find your dates, but the proper place is at herp society meetings, expos, and possibly outdoor activities.

Going the extra mile to find that perfect soul mate will be well worth the effort. I know - because I found mine and married him in 1979! I can't imagine what life would have been had I never found him.

and great advice. Lisa worked for me at PetSupermarket and pursued me for many a year till she finally caught me and put me in a herp bag. No more hassles about animals and women.
 
Lots of guys think its weird that I keep snakes. My problem is even worse because they live in my bedroom... 'eeeeww i'm not sleeping in here, the snakes might get out in the middle of the night' etc etc. But tbh thats their problem. It is important that I find something who is generally an animal lover. In fact, I am very opinionated on everything and find it hard to spend alot of time with people who's views totally differ mine.

I was with a boyfriend for a month or so, it was going really well, and then him and his mates kicked this kitten in the street :eek:that was the end of him, as well as being slapped across the face!
 
beaniebopps, I'm an old guy, really old. But I can't believe there has ever been a guy in your bedroom who said "'eeeeww i'm not sleeping in here". That has to be make believe right.
