Well my current BF who I do believe will be my spouse some day soon is not an animal person. We've had this conversation and what I do know is that he understands that since I am an animal lover I'm a package deal. But with me I do understand that I have to be somewhat accomodating to him because I love him. It's give and take.
I know his limits and he knows mine. With Troy, he helps out (food, babysitting if needed, clean up, etc.) but I know that if there was more than 1 it would be difficult and stain the relationship.
I think for anyone dating, establishing your limits and compromises is important. I like that my BF is willing to go to the Dog Park with us and be a dog owner. I know that he won't necessarily pick Troy up and allow him to snuggle with him but I do know he'll never harm him or let anyone harm him. He does understand that Troy is family and that's all I can ask for.
