It raises flags because most people who dont like dogs are either afraid or dont get a long with them. If you were afraid you’d say that, but you said you dont like dogs so the reasonable assumption is that you dont like dogs because dogs dont like you.

Its hard to find a comparison but it would be similar to saying “I dont like my mom”. Unless you have a follow up story involving abuse that was not your fault, you are the problem.

That said, there are plenty of people who feel immense fear around dogs or other negative emotions, and while that perspective can be changed over time, its by no means required.

I think this whole post would benefit from the OP adding more background about why they feel so negatively towards dogs, but they seem to want to blame it on dogs or their family rather than think about that.

I understand where you are coming from, but when has “poor me” ever resulted in a benefit. You aren’t a victim here, you just dont like dogs and let your family tell you what to do.

Its not that you dont have the leverage to refuse the request, its that both parties have no leverage unless its accepted.

You are not required to solve your families problems either.

The only reason I disagree is because ive had both perspectives so I know theres a possibility to change if wanted.

I very much disliked my mothers dog for a long time. Didnt want to take care of it or be around it or anything. Thought she was annoying and clingy.

Nowadays I just see the dog different, despite all of her problems getting worse with old age. I feel compassion for her and it makes me happy to see her having fun when I come to see her now.

Its very easy to let an animal just be an inconvenience or a problem, but I think the key is giving the animal a basic level of respect. You wouldnt treat the dog that way if it were a human in that situation.

Apparently being constrained by deadlines turned him into a procrastinating, spineless teenager.

Can you prove they do listen?

Just because it doesnt make sense to you doesnt make it wrong.

The way this stuff works is by collecting many data sources and combining them. It doesnt have to be you that searches for roof stuff, could just be someone connected to you searched for it while on your WiFi, or say you call your mom or dad and then they start searching for a roof company online.

I believe the very first one had skill points that unlocked an extended ending and game art.

Not sure where the debate is this moment but from my understanding, vegans won’t eat honey.

Its one of the worst paying jobs that requires specific training and schooling to get into. How could they possibly pay for that plus the COL?
