I've had 2 in the past, a Chilean Rose Hair and a Salmon Pink Birdeater. You'll want to go with a Rosehair but make sure it's a female. Both mine were males and they'll typically only last for about 5 years where as a female will live much longer--possibly 20-30 years. I was able to handle my rosy but be very careful of their hairy abdomens. When threatened, they'll kick off these hairs which will cause great discomfort if they get lodged in your skin and you don't want them in your eyes. Do your research and you'll do fine. I too was terrified of spiders but not not anymore.
