Dealing with people who don’t understand
My childhood best friend has popped out of the woodwork now she’s getting married. I am the only person who cares for my dog and to be honest I don’t trust anyone to look after my dog either. My friends wedding venue is a hotel which is dog friendly so my idea was to stay at the hotel overnight and pop in an out for my dog (my dog adjusts well to unfamiliar places luckily). My friend seems to think I should get a petsitter instead (overnight) so I can enjoy myself. However I would not enjoy myself, and I’d rather not go at all if that was the case.
This friend hasn’t seen me in over 2 years. I’m just a guest at the wedding and not even in the wedding.
I don’t know why I’m posting. Just feel like no one understands the toll having an epileptic dog is especially when you are the only one. I’m such a home body anyway, I work from home etc. I go out to the gym and shopping etc but social life wise I just see my mum for a coffee every week.
Me and my dog escaped d.v and travelled over continents. She’s never left me, and the idea of leaving her to “have fun” would just not be fun.
