are me and this guy just dating? or is this the love of my life?
if this guy is the LOVE OF MY LIFE, totally perfect match, head over heels, I want to spend the rest of my life with you and we have been together for a LONG TIME.. than I dunno... that would be a toughie.
lol im just going to be honest here..
If I lived with the LOVE OF MY LIFE and everything was GREAT AND AWESOME and I was totally in love and all of a sudden he developed severe allergies and NOTHING we tried worked,AND I was sure I could find homes where my pets would be happy, then I'm pretty sure I would know my decision.
We would do ANYTHING in our power to make it work with the dog/cat of course. grooming appointments, air purifyers, medication etc.. but if NONE of it worked and his allergies were SEVERE than I will admit that ya, for the love of my life, rehoming my animal would be considered.. not lightly of course.
but if my animal could be happy with another home and I could NEVER be happy with another guy..
its not a decision I would take lightly of course, my pets are an important part of my life and I love them. but if I knew I could find them GOOD homes where they would be happy... thats what I would do. It would still suck and still be a heartwrenching decision to make, but to give up the love of my life and someone to spend the rest of my life with would hurt a hell of a lot more I think..
Maybe its the hopeless romantic in me.. but in my eyes true love does kind of conquer all.
Plus I know my animals.. I guess it would be different if I had the kind of pets that would NEVER be happy without me but, especially with Romeo, he is happy in ANY situation with basically anyone, he is very biddable and adapts very well. I KNOW if I looked I could find him a home where he would be 100% happy.
Now, if this guy was all like "well just get rid of it!" or doesn't want to try or compromise to keep the animals or hates animals totally than obviously he isn't the guy of my dreams and hes a douche sooo getting rid of my animals would not even be an option. I wouldn't even be dating him lol
If the question was like "The guy of your dreams or throw you animals in a shelter" now that would be a different story. I'm sorry but my dogs mean so much more to me than throwing them in a shelter and hoping for the best. I would have to find AMAZING homes where they were happy or no dice. the guy would get to spend some time at the holiday inn
Oh and for some guy I'm dating if things are 100% serious/perfect? heck no. It would have to be a SERIOUS relationship. There would have to be a ring on my finger for me to change my life that drastically. and he would have to be willing to try and make it work..
He would have to get it. You know what I mean? He would have to be the kind of guy that totally understood the relationship I have with my pets. no its not "just a dog". If he understood that and we tried EVERYTHING and I was honestly in love and knew this was my soulmate and I was SURE I could find my pets happy homes then.. well like I said, rehoming my pets would probably be the choice.
