Weezel, my using a guy's non-PC term like "hunting babes" has drawn out
all the lunies!  Everyone seems to have focused on the "hunting" and "babes"
words while completely deleting or ignoring all my references to all the
*emotions* involved like laughing, crying, hoping, sharing worries with
friends, wondering what she'll think -- you know -- all sorts of non-violent,
non-women-as-objects type language.  Thanks for offering this interpretation
(as one of three possible) in your reply.  

For those gentle lurkers needing more PC terms to describe what I was saying:
"I'm in my life long search for my soul-mate to share my heart & soul & life
with.  That one special woman where we mesh not only sensually, but 
financially, socially, intelectually and spiritually.  Until I find that 
certain someone to go to arsty films with, to take long walks on
the beach with, to share my happinesses & sorrows with -- I'll have to keep
searching until she comes along."
