Whoa whoa whoa, sir/ma'am
We only pair inverts here, no life goal wish lists or tinder profile sneaks
Enzo is young and impressionable...

No worries, Enzo can handle a little bit of colorful language as long as it is not pictures of brown recluse biting an "ear" Needless to say he only really likes 2 ladies, the first one being his mother and the second one being @Casey K. (but I suspect he is just flirting with her to try to get discounted Ts)....

That was definitely a "tinder profile sneak" LOL - perfectly put.

See... I can't put "must like spiders and have phat booty" on tinder... I would be waiting 10 years for a simple "hello"

Let's face it, we are a still a "fringe" hobby, as much as it hurts to say it.

Having said that, I do intend to visit the amazing BTS Tarantula Expo in July... Worcestershire. For those of you who are in the UK. Maybe I will see some of you there. Looks to be an amazing line up.

It doesn't work

Because you are no Enzo and you do not have his French accent

For what it's worth, Billy Eilish brags about and poses with her GBB, may not be as fringe as you think

I will check that out.

Although I would still say that 95% of the population is terrified or doesn't care for arachnids / inverts / reptiles.

You can meet someone nice (ish) but getting them "on board" with your hobby is still like a 2% probability.

Not crying the poor tale, as I'm a fairly good looking dude... but it's a case of finding something in common with others. And you can meet a good looking girl, but a good portion of society is quite brainwashed to boot.

So not only are you trying to sell yourself, but then you are trying to sell the fact that you keep animals most people are petrified of!

That's the reality.

If you have a partner that is happy with you and your hobby... cherish them. That's all I can say. You've struck gold.

What if you have more than one hobby?
