Just had my fifth date with new bloke. Had a lovely time so far, dinners out and met a couple of his siblings, so far so good.
Tonight he came to mine for a meal, and was flinching and positively jumping out of his skin every time my small, friendly dog went anywhere near him.
Seriously, I've never seen anyone react to an animal like this. I mean there's not particularly liking dogs, and I don't expect everyone to do so, but it was extreme. Dislike, not fear, I add.
I'm not sure if it's worth trying to continue a relationship with him, we sure as hell are never living together whilst my dog is alive, that seems certain.
I'm quite upset about it, I was feeling quite hopeful until tonight.
Is it a deal breaker, or should I try and work around it? Getting rid of my dog is NOT an option for me.
