Too Picky?

I was talking to my ex-boyfriend Slim the other day, and I was giving him a hard time (because that's what I do best) about the fact that he never wears cologne. Not that I think all guys should wear cologne all the time, but you know, it's nice every once in awhile. If only to cover up the sweat.

Me: Did you wear it when you went out with that one girl?

Him: No.

Me: Well, that's why she never went out with you again! I mean, hell, I've stopped seeing guys for less.

Him: Yeah, but you don't count. Your reasoning is flawed.

Me: My how-I-decide-on-a-mate reasoning?

Him: Yes.

Me: You're probably right. I do have a lot of deal-breakers.

Him: Yeah, like, "Doesn't wipe his feet off before he comes in."

Me: Come on, that's huge. It's not just the mud on the carpet, but it's what it REPRESENTS.

Him: What does it represent?

Me: Lack of conscientiousness.

Him: So you're telling me that you would stop seeing someone because he forgot to wipe his feet off before he came into your apartment?

Me: Well, not after the first time.

Him: You're crazy.

I think maybe he's right.
