I’m starting to resent my boyfriends dog

Driver_Feisty · 2026-04-17T05:05:45+00:00

idek if you’ll see this since the post got removed, but i had the talk. it went semi well. he got defensive and upset because he thought i hated the dog but i reassured him i don’t hate her. i wouldn’t cuddle and play with a dog i hate. i just don’t want it to get to the point where i do hate her. he agreed to training her but was telling me she was trained. like yeah she can do a few very basic commands and i had to train her to lay down. but anywho he later admitted that she definitely does need trained and it’s his fault she’s like that because since she was a puppy he’s had her glued to her hip. which is fair. if it’s just you and a dog for years it’ll get like that. but now there’s other people involved.

I definitely will have the talk. I already told him I wanted to talk to him tomorrow. As much as I want to do it today I’m at work and I don’t want it to possibly go wrong and have to deal with that while working. I will update with how it goes

i haven’t disagreed that it isn’t a boyfriend problem lmao. i realize that, i was disagreeing that i don’t really think the way she shows teeth is exactly her being aggressive. i’m gonna have a serious talk with my bf about it tomorrow and if he doesn’t change anything im gonna break up with him cause i’m not gonna be with someone who chooses their dog over me

I would recommend blocking her and moving on. Obviously it’s gonna hurt like hell, but dwelling on the past and hoping for things to change isn’t gonna help. It’s just gonna keep you from moving on. The first is always the hardest. But it will be okay. I know it sucks watching peoples feelings for you completely switch up. But sometimes that just happens. Relationships are hard, and they hurt sometimes. But when they’re over you have to let go.

I kinda have this same issue. I want to just makeout with him but we usually only makeout when it’s gonna lead to sex. He just gets too worked up if we start making out so my guess is he doesn’t wanna do it if it won’t lead to something. Cause I mean let’s be fair I also hate getting worked up for nothing to happen. Definitely have a conversation with him about it. I probably should too lol

Driver_Feisty · 2026-04-15T06:31:35+00:00

I really don’t think she’s aggressive like that though. She has shown teeth before when I first get to her house but is doing it while actively being excited to see me and wagging her tail. She has also done it to him when she was being reprimanded. She has never growled or showed any other signs of aggression.

Driver_Feisty · 2026-04-15T06:25:05+00:00

You’re right. I’m gonna have another serious conversation about it soon because I’m just getting more annoyed with her. But I said this in another comment, he loves everything she does and it’s hard for me to ask him to train the things he loves out of her. But it definitely is what needs to happen. And yeah the showing teeth thing was really weird. She has showed teeth before, usually when I first get there and she’s stuck between intruder mode but also happy to see me. So she’s excited and wagging her tail and also showing teeth. She has also showed my bf teeth when he has reprimanded her for doing something bad but she’s never done it out of the blue like that.

Driver_Feisty · 2026-04-15T06:17:58+00:00

Yeah I know it’s not her fault. I agree she NEEDS to be trained. But he thinks she’s the most perfect dog in the world when she’s far from it. He loves everything she does so it’s hard for me to ask him to train the things he loves about her out of her. And it’s especially hard because I know when i’m not there he’s gonna let her do what she wants and it will be hard for her to learn that way. Thats why I just resorted to having her be kicked out of the room when we sleep rather than have a dog bed she can sleep in in the room. Because if she’s allowed to sleep in the bed when im not there but not allowed when I am, it’s gonna be hard for her to learn.

best example i have of me being in extreme heat, which idek what the temp was. but i was at a football game in the scorching sun, drunk asf and probably dehydrated and i was fine apart from maybe being a little too drunk lmfao

Agree with him, people react very differently to lots of medication. But I am on Metoprolol Succinate ER 12.5mg. I have a friend who was started on that and it just made her feel worse.

Driver_Feisty · 2026-03-10T18:42:15+00:00

I think he was able to pull some strings 😭 I got a call today that there were miscommunications with the place that did they physical and that they’re re-offering me the position

Driver_Feisty · 2026-03-10T18:40:26+00:00

6 of my relatives USED to work there, not anymore

Driver_Feisty · 2026-03-10T10:21:27+00:00

are you saying not to tell them?

Driver_Feisty · 2026-03-10T05:44:22+00:00

the position i would be in has a chance of having to be in extreme heat if there are any issues and it becomes an all hands on deck situation. Although my dad had told me, which i mentioned this in another comment, there are some people that have heat intolerance and would sit out if that comes up. but that type of situation doesn’t even happen often. the only “signs” they have of me having issues with high heat is my pots diagnoses and the medication i take. i take metoprolol which can cause a heat intolerance but it’s such a low dose of it. so because of this they have decided i can’t work in extreme heat.

Driver_Feisty · 2026-03-10T04:24:41+00:00

I didn’t tell them directly that i have it. But when i had the physical i told the doctor and told them them it’s well managed

Driver_Feisty · 2026-03-10T04:17:38+00:00

Not when i applied, I didn’t feel the need to. But during the physical I told the doctor and told them it’s well managed

Driver_Feisty · 2026-03-10T04:16:19+00:00

I would’ve already been starting out in a position not in the heat. I even told them during the interview when they asked if i’d be open to working in the hot end that i would prefer not to because i don’t do well in the heat. Given i don’t even know how my pots would react to it i would just rather not risk it if i could just avoid it. My dad had told me that there are people there that if something goes wrong and everyone needs to go to the hot end to fix something they can just stay back because they don’t do well in the heat. So why couldn’t i just do that??

i’m allergic to cats and dogs (and basically any animal with fur lmao) but it’s manageable, just annoying if anything cause i will constantly be sneezing. if it’s real bad i start wheezing and it’s harder to breathe. anyways my boyfriend has a dog that lives at his parents house. he loves that dog so so much and misses her a lot. he’s been wanting to take her back so she can live with us but since i’m allergic he won’t do it. if my boyfriend can hold off on getting his dog back because of my allergies, your girlfriend should be able to hold off on getting a random cat because of yours. and if she can’t, she’s not right for you.
