I saw this woman with a long laundry list....she had herself listed as having no children.

 

BUT in in her profile, she says she had 3 children (and she names the breeds of dogs)

 

THen she disclaims it with, "In case you were rreading the first part and thought I had children, it's true, I consider my pets as my children."

 

Pets are great and all, but isn't this "state of mind" disturbing to a certain extent?

Bwahahahaha! Was she serious? I mean, I have a dog, but...damn!

Not really.

 

I loved my dog and would've done anything for him, although I didn't consider him as a child. But, obviously women are more maternal.

Posted

My mom spoiled my dog worse than many spoiled children are, and certainly treated him as a child, but I don't think she'd ever really compare him to me or put that on a website, unless it is one of her dog forums or something.

eh - too hard to tell online. Maybe she's just being somewhat silly and quirky. Being pretty attached to pets is no big deal - however if she starts talking about her pets like you would children such as:

 

Well I don't know if I'd like to live in that neighborhood - it doesn't really seem like the cats would like it and I hear the school systems are poor

 

get out.

Yeah, she's probably just really into animals. No way to tell if she's crazy or not from a dating profile. I'd probably meet her before I'd rule her out.

Lucky it isn't cats; then you should be worried. Hehe - kidding

its for that reason that i dont date women with pets at all... if a woman has pets she is always gonna put the pets first. and thats not fair since if im with a woman im ALWAYS gonna put her first.

 

women with pets cant give as good as they get basicly.

 

:lmao: Awesome! :lmao::lmao:

 

I would not date a man who really thought of his pets as children or used his pets to fill an emotional void from lacking children.

 

I have a dog, he's an awesome dog but not human and not a child.

Posted

No, not at all.

 

I have cats and a dog, and I consider them children.

Flag for me. No pets, tyvm. I'm allowed and I say.

Why is this upsetting? XD

 

I've made jokes about my cat being my baby, but when I moved in with my boyfriend, I had to give her up to my parents because he had a big dog already that wasn't compatible with my cat. And I didn't once complain.

 

I'd be more concerned if she treated pets like they were nothing. I knew a girl who killed a cat by microwaving it and she was f-ing crazy, especially considering that she would re-tell this story over and over again and laugh about how the cat looked while it was dying.

I love my dogs like crazy. I appreciate they are not children, but they are my pets- and I love them as much as I've ever loved anything in my life.
