#38: Losing Hurts
This anonymous confession evokes a deep sense of empathy and understanding. The individual in question has been in a long-term relationship with their girlfriend and has always resisted the idea of getting a dog, despite the girlfriend's fervent desire for one. It transpires, however, that the person doesn't hate dogs at all, but rather loves them deeply. The reason they are hesitant to get one is because they know they will have to say goodbye someday, and the thought of that pain is almost unbearable.
It's a poignant reminder that love and loss are two sides of the same coin. The pain of losing a beloved pet can be overwhelming, and some people simply can't bear it. In this case, we believe that the person should be honest with their girlfriend and share their true feelings. We have a hunch that she will understand and appreciate their vulnerability. It's a testament to the power of communication and authenticity in relationships.
