Pretty cool, I'd be in.

The last 2 women I dated had trashed scores (and still do 1-2 decades later) so maybe this app would save me some trouble.

Apparently I have been dating wrong… I normally go for ladies I suspect can get their ankles behind their ears.

In a day gone by my Nick name was "Trapline" back in the 80's. Tried a big no no and dated eight women at the same time more or less. The guys told me it would be a disaster! Huh ... ? Then I mixed up some names on dates and my network fell apart. Is there a moral of a story? Beats me but credit scores never came to mind? Packed up my "old kit bag" and left town ... on the next freight ...
