Thanks guys. I am really getting into Crested Geckos. They are such cool little guys.

They are somewhat quick. I havent had one get away from me though. Its not horribly quick.

They dont mind being held. In fact, when I open up the Kritter Keeper, they seem to come to the top and try to get out to explore or something. They are awesome little guys.

Isn't there a Halloween skink to replace the sun skink?

I just wanted to use this forum to talk to people I am so lonely lately that is one reason i am having to downsize. me and my boyfriend broke up in march and we have been discussing getting back together but he wants to move so slow and i am left all alone. I dont have a close family and havent made alot of friends. I came home to an empty house just me and my animals without them i would have already put myself out of my misery. my daughter isnt here every night she is here about 3-4 nights a week and the nights shes not i am in tears. how do you deal with having to be alone. my boyfriend keeps me hanging on so i dont wanna date. i cant date i love him. i just need help and this was the first place i thought of.

Mate, dont let life drag you down{even when its crap}I'm no agony aunt but there are loads of friends here to chat well type to, sounds like he's torturing you, give him an kick up the ass and tell him to shape up or do one permenantly.I've spent a few years on my own and pets are good to talk to,they listen well and dont give bad advice, also you wont get called a nutter like if you talked to yourself, I hope this raises a smile for you,things will get better I'm sure, try to keep smiling,at least that way people usually smile back.

Go talk with a doctor right away! You may have any number of things going wrong with your chemistry including thyroid issues or you may need something to help you over the hump of the breakup.

Your daughter needs you and the world needs you. Don't let one person determine how you're feeling. Put the breakup behind you and move on. Prove to yourself and your ex that you are a vibrant young woman with a lot to offer to anyone. Hanging onto a relationship is not healthy.

Leigh is right....If you can't give him the boot we will be glad to kick his butt for you! :lol: Or at least sick some bad tempered skinks on him! :tough:

Downsizing is tough, but remember everything in life is only temporary. This too shall pass.

Speaking from personal experience my dear, if he loved you he wouldn't make you wait. Life is too short to waste it on people who are not going to make you feel special.

Everyone deserves to feel appreciated and have friends who care enough to let them know everyday what they are worth.

I agonized for 2 years over my daughters biological father before I finally realized that he was too selfish to be a good father or lover, after I realized that I found the true love of my life and grabbed on to him with all my might.

I beg you to be strong for your daughters sake and remove the tormentor from your life, you are too important to her to allow yourself to be caught in the psychological trap you are falling into. It will hurt like hell, but in the end you will be stronger and a better mother for it.

I also would suggest visiting your doctor if only for someone to talk to who is trained to help. You are going through one of the toughest times you will ever go through, just remember the mantra; This too shall pass.

You will be in my thoughts, PM me if you need someone to talk to, I will listen.

Brigget,

It's easier to be alone than to be lonely in a relationship. Take this time for some reflection and decide what you want from life. When you decide you want a man in your life as opposed to needing one it will be your time to shine. Keep your chin up. We've all been there.
