This is a Fact for all fish but AQB.

You trying to say she is not hot enough to steal away a married man?  Huh?   ;D   Is that what you are saying Morvis.

I'd guess she would say "do not want".

I think it works too if you're only "in a relationship". It's a bit annoying, because all the attention comes in the moments a man least needs it. And if the partner is jealous you never hear the end of it.

I haven't heard of this name for it but I will nonetheless say FACT.

Idea...

Should we start spoilering all our answers, with the expectation that you have to answer before you read anybody else's answers?

I think considering the crowd is part of the game. But it also costs nothing to put answers inside spoilers, and that gives people the option.

A "guppy" was what girls called pushovers, like me, when I was a kid. I'm going to go with FACT.

Yeah, I've noticed that the moment I'm in a relationship I apparently become 10x more attractive to the opposite sex so I'm going to go with Fact.
