We’d been seeing each other for a while, but he kept telling me that he wasn’t ready for a proper relationship. Then he sent me an email explaining that he really liked me but had some concerns. Helpfully, he included them as a list.
Concern number 7 was “You’re allergic to cats, and I hope to own a cat someday”.
Has he never heard of Claritin?
What, every day for rest of life? No thanks
That’s fair enough. If you are a pet person, it’s OK to look for a partner the same. Maybe not a deal breaker but a concern, anyway.
It’s fair enough when you’re looking for potential partners – I’ve turned down dates from a number of people who already had pets, as there’s no point getting involved if I’m allergic to their best buddy.
It’s more the fact that this was someone I’d already been seeing for a while, who didn’t actually own a cat. Made it pretty clear that he couldn’t really like me very much…!
Forget him. Any man who likes cats is gay. 😉
Can we see the rest of the list please?
HI Vince,
yes! I’ll see if I can find the original message…
