Well, my big BCI, Shaidar Haran, has been known to drool on me sometimes. I have convinced myself that she is happy to see me, gets excited and drools (like my cat Fred does) |

Well I have heard stories of snakes which seemed to show particular dislike towards certain people. I was talking to this zookeeper, and he was telling me about a burm which would consistently urinate on only one other keeper and no other person. Interesting, snakes definitely do show some kind of unique response towards certain people. :P

Hard to say if its affection or just thinking about eating you.. but it seems every time Izabele gets in my hand she rubs her head on my palm and "hugs" my fingers, after a bit she just streaches out and chills. *shrug* could be what ever you want to think it is.
But yes, snakes know who you are and some people they really dont like.
