Dog owner buys winter clothes for her beloved dog, then gets told by boyfriend that clothes are only for humans, she decides to break up with him: ‘I can't live with this guy’

You can't explain what it feels like to have a pet to someone who has never had a pet before.

A pet owner's relationship with their beloved pet is something special that is genuinely difficult to explain. They're not your child, but they are also kind of are. You love them with all of your heart, and you would do anything for them, often choosing them over most of the boring humans you know. How can you explain these feelings to someone who has never loved a pet before? It's basically impossible.

That being said, you don't really have to explain yourself to anyone. People are entitled to love and take care of their pets however they see fit, even if others don't truly understand it. So if you want to dedicate a whole room in your home to your pet, or if you want to buy them colorful outfits and parade them around town, absolutely go for it. Nobody can stop you, even if they silently (or not so silently) judge you for it.

However, if you decide to involve yourself with someone who has never owned a pet before, you should be ready to face some raised eyebrows and even a few judgmental words.

That is what happened to the pet owner in the story below. She has a dog she loves very much and a boyfriend who has never owned one before. When she decided to buy her beloved pet a few clothes for the winter season, her boyfriend decided to tell her that she was crossing some lines in his mind. Dogs shouldn't own clothes, he claims; clothes are only for humans.

Well, Mr. boyfriend, you don't get to make that call. If your girlfriend wants to buy some fun clothes for her dog, whom she loves and cares for, there is nothing that you can do or say to stop her. In fact, your weird attitude towards something so innocent and fun is simply a red flag, and could very well lead to you being single in 2026.
