I seem to only like my own pet...
I grew up with mostly cats, we had a dog once when I was very little, but I can't hardly remember him. I never felt like I was a dog person, as a kid I just liked the cats we had because that was my only option really. When I was exposed to a nice chihuahua and learned what it could be like, I became intrigued with the idea of owning one, long story short I researched it and decided to get one, and I'm very glad I did. I'd like to think I'm a "dog person" now, but it doesn't much seem to be true. I still don't like other peoples' big dogs who try to jump up on you, or are dirty and smell bad and your friends expect you to pet them (I'm a little germophobic too). And I don't like cats because I have allergies to them and I'd rather not get their hair on me. The point of all this is, I have friends and my parents who own dogs or cats, and they're super nice about my dog but I don't feel like I return the affection enough. I try to kind of fake it, but I still don't think it's really the same. Am I just a jerk? I'm not quite sure what I expect in response to this post, but I guess I mostly wanted to express it since it's something I feel guilty about.
