Today, my parents eagerly showed me kittens on the internet because they think buying a kitten will help me feel better after the guy I’m in love with broke up with me. When I said it wasn’t going to fix me, my mom suggested a puppy. FML

Well at least they’re trying something, and having an animal does wonders for emotional recovery

Puppies are cute and cuddly. Go for it! Your heart will be broken, but it will heal with a little puppy.

The puppy will be infinitely more loyal at least.

Hey guys I probably should have mentioned that we already have two dogs, and I have two cats that hate each other. One kid the cats is mine alone and I love to pieces. But basically a new kitten isn’t going to make the heartbreak go away, it’s not going to replace the void I feel because I already have pets I love, and unfortunately a partner provides a different sort of emotional connection that I’m not going to get from a new pet.

In that case... how about a new hobby? How do you feel about dog grooming? You might feel better after laughing at your dogs with silly pink bows in their fur or ears (depending on the breed). But seriously, best of luck with getting through this rough point - it's hard suddenly being without someone you love - and a new hobby might just help take your mind off him not being around anymore.
