Agreed.
In his defense, he brought the snake home after she okay'd it. She shouldn't have just gotten rid of it without consulting him. How hard is it to be honest, sit him down and say "I know I said it was okay for you to have this snake, but I am feeling really uneasy about it"?
That just shows the lack of respect she has for him if she's selfish enough to get rid of a pet that he really wanted and likes, especially after she gave approval. This girl is not a keeper.
