Deep-sea Creeps A Field Guide to Terrible Ex-boyfriends (As Sea Creatures)

Your exes as the creeps of the deep sea.

While there may be plenty of fish in the sea, the ones down deep may not be worth catching.

Deep-sea Creeps is a taxonomy of those terrible exes that should have been left lurking in the murky depths of your Tinder messages – from The Self-Proclaimed “Nice Guy” to The Egomaniac, and even The Ex Who Wanted To Break Up (But Wanted You To Do It).

This hilarious oceanographic expedition is for anyone who’s cut a loser from their line, and will (hopefully) help identify the next creep before you reel him in.
