Hiya everyone! This is a little something that doesn’t take much brain strain haaaa.. just a bit of fun while the walk is on hold..which I’ve been working on a little here and there..
If anyone else wants to put a post together for the fun of all – please feel free to go for it if you wish!! 
Here’s 20 Signs that someone is not ‘the one’ – Sourced from a new book titled ‘Things SMK can edumacate us about’ 
.. or something…
So how to you know it’s over??????
Well.. According to SMK.. You just know..
…..Well.. in case you don’t know – Here’s some tips SMK has for Single SMK fans!
You know he or she is not ‘the one’ when:
1) Your mother thinks your boyfriend is such a good listener.. like a registered nurse!
2) When he goes travelling, he brings you back bookends as a present.
3) As a goodbye.. he hugs you (no kiss!) and tells you to ‘be good’! GAG!!
4) He calls to say he will be on time!
5) He criticises his ex-wife.
6) She tries to shoot you.
7) He drugs you.. and (just as bad) he calls you pumpkin.
8) For a date, he gate-crashes an embassy party to get free food. (then brags about it!)
9) He accidentally calls you Amanda. Your name is NOT Amanda!
10) Umm… he threatens to shoot you..(and kinda uses you as a human shield!)
That will do for the moment!
It’s a dating jungle out there!!
Any of these you disagree with??!!! haaaa..
I wonder if any of you can guess what the next 10 will be?! If you’d like to go for it!
I’ll be back with ten more in the next post! byeeee!!!

Funny post, iwsod!!! This had me cracking up!
How about ‘when they choose to marry someone else” – evil Ava. Or when they’re proud of winning an “aluminum sun”. Or would rather show their big catch than their face in a family vacation picture? Or when they offer to make you a mud wrestler? hahaha – these are too fun!

I just always assumed it the way Dotty was making such a big deal about it but I don’t think they ever actually spell it out. How sad – I’ll have to watch the episode over again to see. 🙂
LikeLike
yes watch again! 🙂 tee heee.. true! Thanks for the sacrifice Janet! 🙂
I read that situation as Dotty was meeting Dean’s mother for the first time.. but Amanda had met her before.. but it wouldn’t surprise me if it was written vague and we could go with either version 🙂

Watched the whole episode and still can’t decide. I am however sure that dean’s mother was a 24-carat supercilious b–ch and she stands high on the charts as a reason Dean was not the one.

If someone named a type of chocolate after me in time for Valentine’s Day…he’d be a keeper. A hurricane just doesn’t seem complimentary enough. Naming a star after me would definitely work (as occurred in a guilty-favourite movie of mine)
