That sucks, but if it's putting a strain on your marriage... I guess you've gotta do what you've gotta do. I was in a relationship about 5 years ago in which I had to give up my snakes at the time (a handful of normal ball pythons). Love makes you do silly things. Fortunately for me it wasn't something as permanent as marriage. When that relationship collapsed, I got back into it, and with the collection I have today, there ain't no woman that'll come between me and my snakes.
Hopefully you'll be able to get back into it as well (with your marriage intact). Maybe a man-cave's in your future!
