This Really Sucks...
Well, it absolutely kills me to say it, but it finally happened. My girlfriend finally left me because of snakes and reptiles in general. This really sucks, I am so bummed out. She was my girlfriend for 3 years as of Apr. 24, and she is the love of my life. The worst part of it is, she left me because of all my snakes and that, but now that she is gone, I don't even want them because I have no one to share them with. So I think I might get out of the reptile hobby. It really sucks, but I am so heartbroken, that I have nothing without her anyways.

Thanks Jamie
I have told her that I would get rid of them all, and that wasn't good enough

Maybe she left you for a guy with a longer snake. 
Just kidding, we've all been there so hang tight and
never give up what makes you happy. I'm no Dr. Phil
but life is all about compromising, if she won't meet you
half-way maybe your better off without her (ya I know, easy for me to say).

Thanks for the replies guys.
I was willing to go more than meeting her 1/2 way, I would have went the whole distance and gotten rid of everything. It is hard to never give up what makes you happy, if she breaks up with you. Or me in this case!

Craig, if you said that you would be willing to get rid of your entire collection for her and she still wouldn't take you back, it's not the snakes, and was something beyond your control. Don't beat yourself up about it, it probably wasn't meant to be. Cheer up, this too shall pass.

Thanks Mykee
Yeah your probably right, there's something more than just the snakes.
It sucks, because without her, I don't have the same passion for them (the snakes) anymore. Or the same passion for anything for that matter. Which is why I am considering getting out of the hobby. Don't worry, I am still going to think about it.
Thanks
Craig

Sorry to hear that Craig. Honestly, I agree with Mykee. If you were willing to give up the snakes, then it was not the snakes that caused her to leave. It may have been an "excuse" at the time, for something else, some other reason...
Either way, I am sorry bout it.
Honestly, don't make any decisions you may regret eh. Time does heal wounds.
take it easy.

Thanks Christina
I agree with mykee also.
She dropped of keys and some stuff, and I said it was obviously more than the reptiles. She said it was more than the snakes but couldn't tell me what it was.
Gotta love open ends.
Craig

Hey man, if I ever had a girl tell me that either she left or my herps left, I'd say goodbye to her.. Reptiles are a part of you I'm sure, and if she couldn't accept that, then you're better off anyways.

Yeah I know, but she never even said "me or the herps" really. She just said she didn't want her or our future children surrounded by snakes. I agreed and built a locked snake room to solve that. Then it was still a problem, and I offered to get rid of them. She just thinks I wouldn't and that I am not serious. And nothing would change.
Because people can't change you know.
(sarcasm, for those who didn't catch it.)

Craig, give it time before you make any rash decisions. your love for herps may be drowned out by the sorrow of losing a loved one. it is hard, im sure most of us hear know that. but i garuntee you will regain you pasion for the hobby. trust me  and besides there are a lot of hot femaler herpers out there  so don't give up on us just yet
i wish you the best of luck man
