Why do some people return their ball pythons?

[hihit]

And college room-mates can be a different sort of nightmare- even IF pets are allowed, many ppl fear snakes, & sometimes they do get loose. You might have a good room-mate for a while, but then they're gone & you need to find another. Please try to think of all this before getting a pet- I KNOW how hard it is not to have a pet for a while, believe me- I'm the same way. But think twice while you'll have to be renting or sharing a place to live.

Luckily, I have enough money to be able to afford my own (within a reasonably low price range) single-bedroom apartment. After living with roommates these past 4 years, I've thoroughly decided against having other people in my home, pet considerations aside. Most of my roommates weren't terrible, I'm just a hermit lol.
