I've been married for 20 years to a great guy. I understand fully the difference between dogs and people. But, if my husband left my dogs unattended for 24 hours because he got too drunk to come home...well, I guess that's a mute point. MY husband would NEVER do anything like that.
So, to answer the original posters question about her boyfriend. Yes, I'd have been furious. Yes, I'd have been questioning his commitment to what matters to me.
The simple fact that you're on here defending your actions makes me wonder if it's even occurred to you how upsetting this was for her?
I just hope that you've thought about her feelings in all this, and are taking her concerns seriously. Anyone can screw up, sometimes it's what you do afterwards that shows your true character. |
