My boyfriend and I have only had Tito for about a month now and before then we had a very active social life...we're both heavily involved in the music scene here so our lives pretty much revolved around going out to shows/concerts/events, etc...

Lately I've been wanting to stay home all the time with Tito and hardly go out anymore. My bf is feeling kind of slighted cause he's always out solo now. And it's not just at night..he gets mad that we can't just pick up and go whenever. Even though he absolutely adores the dog, I think he feels he's been replaced. More than anything I think he misses our old spontaneous lifestyle.

Now it's always...I gotta get home and feed/walk/bathe/play with Tito, I can't leave Tito alone all night he'll be sad/he'll cry/he'll get scared, etc... etc... etc... Or better yet...let's take Tito with us!

Is it normal for people to get jealous of a pet? I, personally, think it's kind of ridiculous though cute. Is it because this is new?

P.S. I can't say that I'm too terribly upset about the change though.....I'm getting way more sleep! LOL
If your boyfriend thinks your night life has been short changed because of Tito, what would he think if it was a human baby.
