Frogs rule, LVMs drool!

u/chirpchirping KEEP YOUR FROGS. You will never be able to replace them, all animals are so different and have such unique quirks and personalities. There are plenty of men out there that will love you and accept your whole package, which includes your babies. I rescue birds and currently have 12. My fiancé never liked birds before he met me and would have never kept them, but he grew to love them and now he helps me take care of them and he appreciates my passions. People that will accept and love you for all of you exist. this is one of my favorite photos. Don’t settle for someone that expects you to sacrifice your passions while he sacrifices NOTHING.

"Should I break up with him and not go?" Yes, that is exactly what you should do.

This is her PASSION. She's going to be a biologist and these frogs mean a lot to her. And he doesn't want them around because "they're ugly". It's not an allergy, it's not a safety hazard, he just wants to be the only cold-blooded animal in her life.

Pro tip: if you're a woman on reddit asking "should I dump him?", the answer is yes.

Some women get cats. Some get frogs. Keep your frogs, sis.

Lame, unsupportive boyfriends are a dime a dozen, while safe, comfortable homes for frogs in need are so rare that this is the first time that I have ever heard of one. Which of these things makes this world a more beautiful place?

Soulsalts · 2020-02-25T19:29:47+00:00

Is this from reddit? u/chirpchirping, come here, please. I don't even know you and I care more about your passion in life than your boyfriend does. You deserve and can have better!

This seems like a major incompatibility. If he's so bothered by the frogs he doesn't want to even see them, then... nah.

The moment he said "he's not a huge fan of animals", he said why it wouldn't work out between them. She loves animals, so much so that it's going to be part of her career. I don't see how that's going to work.

Maisiebr · 2020-02-25T19:21:13+00:00

Frogs are friggin cute, I used to save dehydrated frogs in my neighbourhood. Couldn't keep them in the flat though because I was still a child. It's an amazing thing she's becoming a biologist and that her love for frogs insipired that. He could be reasonable about his needs, but he could only give the reason that they are ugly?

JOEYMAMI2015 · 2020-02-25T19:44:49+00:00

If he ain't a fan of animals, he's probably also not a fan of children either. A lot of animals haters that I know, also are not huge fans of kids. Dump him and move on hun....

honestgoing · 2020-02-25T20:30:49+00:00

When your frogs are literally better companions than men.

2020-02-25T21:17:21+00:00

She'd been raising them for years, they helped her through depression, she loves them.

This guy has been on the scene 6 months & wants her to get rid of the things that saved her mental health & give her purpose? How is this even a question she needs help answering?

KitKat1705 · 2020-02-25T20:08:27+00:00

Keep your frogs girl!!!!!!

StillAwakeofCourse · 2020-02-25T20:30:01+00:00

How is this even a question? Dump him and keep your dreams alive. You will hate him, yourself and your future if you do anything less.

Bovvsette · 2020-02-25T20:32:12+00:00

Frog can become a prince, LVM would never. The choice is obvious. By the way, saving amphibians is way more important on the global scale than some pissy incompatible dude's feelings.

VanHustlerBaby · 2020-02-25T20:17:23+00:00

Men come and go but you will have your frogs their entire lives!

30ducks · 2020-02-25T20:31:34+00:00

Keep the frogs! Kick him out!

extraacct1234 · 2020-02-25T21:06:01+00:00

Clearly this dude hates her. He probably also wants to get rid of the frogs so she can focus completely on him.

CyanCayenne · 2020-02-25T21:52:06+00:00

If you stay with him this is just the beginning of a lifetime of your interests being belittled.

2020-02-25T20:51:53+00:00

Fuck him girl. Fuck him. Those frogs are deserving of your love

redbirdflies · 2020-02-25T22:08:00+00:00

I’m not a big reptile fan ( I know frogs aren’t reptiles). But my son LOVES lizards and snakes. So guess who is tripping it to the pet store weekly for frozen baby mice and live crickets (ewww) to feed these beloved pets? This girl is.

That’s what love does. Don’t settle for anything less in your man ladies. If they can’t support your passion, they ain’t it.

FairyFrenchfries · 2020-02-25T20:16:29+00:00

My ex made rehome my Cadillac. Never again!

CyanCayenne · 2020-02-25T21:58:58+00:00

I just have to say thank you to everyone who commented on this post for making me laugh so much on such a shitty day.

darkhorse8419 · 2020-02-26T00:33:21+00:00

If he loved her and they mean that much to her, it would mean that much to him that the frogs have made her find her purpose in life. I used to have pet rats and i would never give them away.

boooooooooooooooooo · 2020-02-26T01:02:29+00:00

I love frog girl 😭 but she needs to get in here and read the handbook. Never move for a man unless you're married or at least engaged! Never move in with a man unless you're married or at least engaged! Never compromise your career for a man, period!

piccyd · 2020-02-26T01:01:17+00:00

She sounds so cool I want to be her friend

glazedhamster · 2020-02-25T20:19:13+00:00

Keep your frogs, sis. The odds of kissing one and him turning into a prince are higher than the likelihood that this man would ever support your passion.

At first I was kinda outraged but tbf (ugh, and trust I hate defending men) he did make it clear he's not an animal person. That's a major incompatibility and that's OK. Make a clean break and focus on what fills you with joy, someone who complements your already full life will come along.

ironymaiden87 · 2020-02-25T20:47:33+00:00

DUMP HIS ASS. She's way too good for him! I couldn't be with someone who didn't love animals. They will always be my number one priority. I'd totally date this girl if we lived in the same city.

chirpchirping · 2020-02-26T05:10:32+00:00

Hey guys, thank you so much for all of the support. If you guys have any questions about me or my frogs, my twitter is @chirpchirpingof! I'm amazed how many people are responding to this. I'm not going into detail on any aspects of my relationship out of respect for the other person but the frogs are staying :)

delicateearthbabe · 2020-02-25T21:44:22+00:00

Sounds like he's only moving away so he has a reason for her not to bring her frogs 🙄

2020-02-26T03:33:56+00:00

Oh, wow, I love her... KEEP THE FROGS, LOSE THE MAN.

bruhmerica · 2020-02-26T04:16:53+00:00

What a wholesome dream. Please don't give up your amphibious babies for a man. They're so much cuter and will bring you more joy than any man who asks you to give up your life passion for him will.

RiteWriter · 2020-02-26T08:54:06+00:00

Frogs 🐸

Those frogs changed her life for the positive more than he will

ScarletFate779 · 2020-02-26T15:34:58+00:00

There is no choice and he’s far from the most important thing in life if he’s asking you give up yours. If he appreciates you in any way he wouldn’t even ask such things. Besides if you can keep 3 he doesn’t have an aversion to them so no reason why you can’t keep all.
