She nicely let me know I was starting to make her nervous because of the nerd / freak I was becoming for having such "strange" pets. She told me it was very un-lady like of me, which I just laughed at her because there is tons of girls in the hobby. Maybe not out here in this little town, but there are tons everywhere else.
When I explained to her that basically she was an idiot she went as far as even picking out my selection of tv shows like watching DBZ and how I should be more interested in spending my young years in the clubs and bars. What can i say, I'm still a kid at heart and love cute pets and cartoons lol.
We no longer talk to each other.
