Today, I asked my boyfriend what he thinks about long term relationships. He said, "Our relationship is kinda like having a dog. Chances are, your dog is going to die pretty quickly, before you do. Dogs and humans just aren't meant to be together forever." He compared me to a dying dog. FML

I have a friend who got compared to ice cream in a breakup. "Girls are like ice cream...you have to try all the flavors before you choose one"

Ok, first off, you should dump him. Secondly, does that make any sense to anyone? Maybe i'm just tired but...

ouch.. he's the dog. what an asshole

Yes, as the reasonable people who left comments have already pointed out, he was comparing the relationship to a dog. Not you, not him. Don't fly into a panic and try to twist his metaphor's meaning into something vile in order to make yourself into some sort of victim. Your boyfriend was being plainly realistic. Relationships are very rarely lifelong, and quite often they'll be short-lived. In that sense, the -relationship- is often like a pet. If one is serious, a dog or so. Hey, be happy you two don't form a metaphorical hamster. Or a metaphorical fish.

#11 has it right... He just means that your relationship will die before you guys do...

i think 39 and 42 are missing the point. this girl's boyfriend just compared their relationship to a DYING DOG. he said its like a dog, and that ultimately it is going to die before they do, which means it IS dying # 39. and 42 has a good point that the boyfriend was being realistic, but im sure it was still upsetting to like this boy so much and hear such a sad analogy.

None of that makes any sense, but waht I got was that he doesn't want a long term relationship.

#34: I can see someone has some unresolved issues that you need to work out with a psychiatrist. But funny nonetheless. And SOMEWHAT true.

@34 - You speak the truth , BUT you also come off as a psycho.
