Many people misconceive that they are messy and space consuming animals, as well as problematic to care for. Once you get the basics down, they're really easy animals to take care of, unless your afraid of dead rats.. which most people find weird and nasty.
Others also perceive me as a hypocrite because I feed rats but am a vegetarian.. another misconception because my rats live good lives, and I'm a vegetarian because of mistreatment during LIFE.
Another misconception is that they will all get huge and EAT ME. And I also get "how do you deal with the ones that are poisonous".
Petite, don't worry about the marriage thing. It shouldn't really matter. My boyfriend loves my snakes (I may give him his favorite eventually), and my best friend Joe has some snakes of his own.
Most guys aren't afraid of them either, so no worries!
