Name a thing you love (reboot).

[Witty_Sarcasm]

Lol yup for sure, same here. Ya, it was upsetting when they got rid of my sweet dog, I hadn’t been “living” there anymore, was just doing the weekend visit, so it felt a bit sudden when he just “wasn’t there anymore” but it was cos of my baby bro I guess. Ya he was a great companion for sure, loved him a lot and he was always really happy to see me which always felt really good

Aw, I understand about it being a complicated thing with whether to visit those kitties at the shelter cos of it possibly confusing them if they don’t go home with you. Ya I wouldn’t be able to just pick “one” of them either so I definitely understand about that too. What I’d maybe do is go there in some kind of a disguise or something, but I guess that’d be hard to do, plus I would want them to feel comforted by “seeing me” and all of that. Ya, maybe I’d end up just not going because of that, I think it would be too heart-wrenching to just “see” them, but not being able to do anything else and things like that. I’m sorry for that situation though, truly.

It's really mean that they did that, just got rid of the dog without even telling you first. That would bother me for sure. It's good to have a proper goodbye at least. I'm not sure if I could go there at all without breaking down, so I guess all I can do now is remember the good times we had.

Ya, it definitely sucked, but I guess they probably saw it as I was just an 11 year old kid and that it didn’t matter much what I thought or felt about it, who knows. I was really sad when I found that out though for sure. Ya, it woulda been nice to say bye to him properly, but also incredibly sad. But it was sadder to just suddenly “never see him again”.

Aw I understand, it would be the same for me. Ya, I’d probably just want to remember the good times too, I’m really sorry about all that though. I know it is tough.

It matters a lot, even if you were a kid at the time. Probably especially then, because that's just mean to do to a kid. Maybe you can find a really cool dog in the future that you like, but I'm glad you have Bella anyway. It's a tough situation for sure but I'll get through it eventually and hopefully be able to deal with things more easily.

Thank you, I really do appreciate the acknowledgment of my feelings with that. I had never really thought of it as a “mean” thing they did, but ya, it was, and I did feel very sad about it. Just cos they didn’t care about or value how I felt about it doesn’t mean I needed to do the same.

Ya it’d be cool to have a dog as a pet sometime in the future, would love to have another cocker spaniel, or a dachshund, pug, chihuahua or beagle Ya I’m definitely very glad and grateful to have my sweet Bella.

I know it’s a tough situation, and I know you’ll survive it, come through it and be able to deal with things better than ever, cos you’re one of the strongest people I’ve ever known

It's mean to me because they didn't consider your feelings or even consult you before they did that. And I feel like that's the least they owed you if that's what they planned on doing. I'm not sure whether I would want a dog or cat, but likely a cat at this point in time. There was a boxer on the adoption site but that would be too big for my apartment. There's only like a 30 pound weight limit on dogs so it would have to be smaller for sure. Aww thank you, but really I think you're stronger than me.

Yup, I agree that it’s mean that they did that, they were (and still kinda are, bad as that sounds to say, it’s the truth lol) pretty clueless, ignorant, insensitive and otherwise thoughtless with most things though, definitely the very definition of “completely dysfunctional” so that’s just kinda how it was. If only that had been the “worst” thing they did, maybe I coulda had at least some kind of chance of growing up somewhat well adjusted lol, but no such luck, so oh well, just how it goes sometimes I guess.

I agree with those things you said about it though, and if they had any capacity for “decency” then I think they woulda done that. Ya I have always preferred to have cats over dogs as pets, but usually the only reason it hasn’t been “both” is to do with $. Ya we have a size limit with pets here too, it’s not by weight though but by how “tall” they are lol. You’re welcome, and aw I think you’re definitely stronger than me, but thank you for saying that, it’s so nice of you

It's like the saying "A leopard doesn't change its spots", so I'm not surprised that they still are the same way. They just sound like bad people and it's too bad they don't learn anything from their actions. Well I think we're both pretty strong. I don't think I would be able to have a tall dog either because of limited space lol. But maybe in the future I could if I wanted to.

Yup, that’s an excellent quote for sure, I agree with it completely, very few exceptions with that one in my experience. I’m not surprised they are still like that either (mostly step-witch really, my dad isn’t as bad, isn’t mean or evil like her, but there’s a lot he could do to “help” that he doesn’t do, so that’s still not very good in some ways). I hope one day they’ll learn to be more sensitive too.

Thanks, I think we’re both quite strong too for sure. Aw about not being able to have a tall dog cos of limited space, ya it’s pretty much the same here. I’d want a smaller one anyway though. I hope you’ll be able to have one in the future too

Most people don't change if they are already not that great to begin with. That's just my experience anyway. if you are a decent person, then you can continue to learn and grow. But some people are toxic and they don't see that what they do is wrong. Well I have to be careful because if I move to a place where I won't have restrictions on pets, it might quickly become a zoo.

Yup, it does seem to be an unfortunate fact of life, such an unnecessary tragedy though imo. I feel like especially when I was a pretty young kid (like under 10) that I sometimes wasn’t very nice, but I always felt very “bad” about that fact, and always had a desire to be “better” (as in, nicer, kinder and more “evolved” lol) than those family members I was surrounded by. So maybe even when I didn’t “know better” I was still ultimately good and caring at heart. I like to think so anyway.

I had potential to be a kinder, more caring person, and developed that a LOT over the years. I became that way pretty much entirely from my own “will” if that makes sense. My uncle helped me become a lot more intelligent with how I thought about things too though for sure, he could sometimes be incredibly selfish though but thankfully I was aware of that and did my best to not be that way too.

Anyway - lol about the moving into a place that doesn’t have restrictions on pets thing, ya same here for sure with needing to be careful that it didn’t turn into a zoo, I kinda like the idea of living in a zoo though and being surrounded by mostly animals, and only a few people who are cool (and would definitely need to be animal lovers too of course, lol) :p

I think the fact that you knew that you weren't always kind then but wanted to be better says a lot. Some people never have that realization or even care about it. So I think that shows that you have a lot more emotional intelligence than some other members of your family.

Aw, well thank you for saying that, it definitely really means a lot to me Ya, you’re quite right that some people never have that realization, let alone when they are under 10 years old lol.

I’m glad I have more emotional intelligence than most of my family, not hard really cos most of them don’t really have any lol. They mostly value intellectual/mental intelligence, that’s important too of course, but to ONLY value that is extremely unhealthy and unbalanced imo. Far too many people end up doing that, and either pretending feelings don’t exist, or seriously underestimating their importance. Very tragic and unnecessary for sure, hopefully one day that will be extremely rare, or even non-existent, I like to believe our species at least has the “potential” to get to such an evolved place for sure I think you seem to have a higher emotional intelligence than your family too.

Yeah, some adults are definitely more immature than a child. Some people just never grow up or realize anything they do is wrong. I'm glad that you see that you need a balance between all of those things and that they are equally important. I think I've always valued emotions more than anything else. Some people might think that makes you weak, but I think it's a strength.

Yup, you’re quite right about the immaturity of some adults, and that some never grow up or realize when they do something wrong. Thanks, me too for sure, I truly do pity those who are unable to recognize the importance of that balance, must make a lot of things much more complicated than they need to be.

I think it’s great that you’ve always valued emotions more than anything else, and no I would never think it was weak. I agree it is a strength, those who see that as a “weakness” are the weak ones, and usually not very brave as well.

I love Amazon too, it’s great.
I love my sweet kitty because she’s so kind, caring, sensitive and psychic, always doing inspections in my room making sure I’m ok in here, looking at me with a sweet, worried look on her face and it’s just very obvious how much she loves and cares about me
