My Boyfriends dog is number one, I am number two.

Firstly, I think him thinking shutting the dog out of the room is cruel, is odd. I am very close to my dog... but I wouldn't have him around whilst doing the deed! That is definitely an issue. He should give you the attention you want and need.
Secondly, him not wanting to leave the dog for 24 hours alone isn't weird. You don't get a dog to then leave it at home all weekend whilst you go on trips. Unless someone else is there to look after the dog, then it's cruel. Is it meant to hold in it's toilet business all day long because you want to go out?! Getting a dog is a huge commitment. In that respect, I think you are missing the point and are being selfish. The RSPCA can get involved if you leave your pet alone for days on end.0 -
My EX wife used to say the same thing about my dog.
I used to tell her....
"Well, if I put both of you in the trunk and drove around in 100 degree weather, which one of you will be happy to see me when I pop the trunk?"
Divorce was final just over 3 years ago....

I am pretty obsessive about my dog as well. He even has a winter coat and a rain coat. I let my mother keep the dog for a few months because I was working a lot, and she has taken it to a whole new level. She even takes him with her when she and my father go to their favorite restaurant---an upper scale restaurant that certainly does not allow dogs. They are regulars, and my dad pays them extra money so they can bring the dog in. It's crazy! However, my dog is a small toy poodle, and he is very well behaved. I am all for treating the dog like a child, but my mother is out of her mind with these antics. lol. However, I have never kept the dog in the room while I was having sex. That would just be too weird for me.0

Here's your answer...your boyfriend locks you and the dog in a room for a couple hours...let's see who is happy to see him when he opens the door0

I really like my boyfriend, and I really love his dog. He adopted him after a few months into us dating. The dog is affectionate and adorable. I have grown rather attached to him. The actual problem is how this man lets the dog dominate his entire life, which is ruining our relationship. He cannot spend one night without it. We cannot go on trips where the dog cannot stay, and even if we do, we cannot stay long because we have to "get back" -- same with even short social gatherings. Moreover, he lets the dog sleep wherever it wants (in between us in his bed), and he insists that it is "cute" or "funny" that the dog seeks affection during and after we do the dirty. I can even count on one hand how many times we've been intimate without the dog in the room, which is now disgusting me as I write this. It has ruined the intimacy level in our relationship, since he believes that shutting the dog out of the bedroom is also cruel. He will often lie around kissing, stroking and petting the dog (even lying on the floor with it) in front of me while we spend time together, but refuses to give me the same affection (he was very loving at the start of our relationship, however). It is really slowly starting to upset me and may even drive me to a breaking point. I have said little things like - "I would like to lay next to my boyfriend" or, "I never sleep at your place with the dog in the bed". Nothing. Am I crazy and seeing things? Does he have a problem or do I? I'm smart enough to know that there's something wrong with this picture at this point and have been giving him the benefit of the doubt to come around due to his redeeming qualities, but on the same end I feel stupid for feeling this way, as if I am overreacting.
Dump this idiot. TODAY.0 -
Yeah....it is time to have a chat with him about his creepy attraction to his dog and his neglect of you.0

LOL this thread is over two and a half years old!!!0

Have you ever considered lying down next to him, putting your feet in the air, and shaking your booty with your tongue hanging out?
Yea. I know. Zombie thread. The OP probably left the clueless dude and took the dog with her a long time ago.0 -
anyone who obsesses over an animal has issues. you should look for a new boyfriend.0

Haha, you called yourself poop0

:smokin: LOL, wow this is old!0

Find a new boyfriend!!!!!0

I most def love my new puppy more than anything....but he needs to balance the two out for the health of your relationship
If he cant, then there lies a serious problem...tell him, maybe he doesnt realize it
Also, I dont see a problem with the dog being in the room during intercourse, as long as the dog is not all up on the bed getting a birds eye view
This. Or shoving their nose up your butt.0 -
Oh dear, thinking about how I lie down and cuddle my cats, and snuggle them. Feel really awkward now. I think I'll stop complaining when my hubby shuts them out of the bedroom!0 -
I must report that the dog died of old age, and the OP married some other dude and has two kids.0
-
why would anyone want their animals in the bedroom during sexy time? thats incredibly weird.0

I understand how you feel!!! My boyfriend has this dog and he goes with us everywhere! We NEVER have time alone together without the dog. I love animals...please don't think differently. I just am not in a relationship with this dog! I've asked him not to bring the dog over to my house because the dog will do his business anywhere he pleases. I'm the one who places puppy pads and tries to direct him to the pads. This dog is two years old. I am so fed up myself!!! What part of NO does he not understand???? Enough is enough! I certainly don't feel no one should come second in a relationship.....especially to a dog!!!0

one hell of a thread bump, just sayin'0

I would tell him that If u cant come before the dog then you are ending the relationship. you deserve a man who will treat you right and love you and only you and who will make you his number one over an animal0
