A Betoota man’s attempt at establishing a romantic connection with his longtime crush has fallen flat this afternoon after it was revealed that the two of them are not actually astrologically compatible.

Months after initiating contact with Stacey (23) over a good ten minutes worth of bar side banter regarding the Betoota Pub’s decision to keep using straws, Pete (32) has been slowly and innocuously laying down the groundwork for what he had hoped would become a lifelong partnership.

Alas, all such hopes were dashed today after he playfully suggested that they google their zodiac compatibility.

“15% Wow! I didn’t even know that was possible!” laughed Stacey, “Ahh well, I guess it’s lucky we’ve never hooked up!”.

“Haha, yeah, I guess it depends how much you believe in that stuff!” gulped Pete, trying not to look at the Gemini symbol tattooed on her forearm.
