    In my experience it’s the opposite, just want to relax and every animal in the household sees a lap spot open up

    “At least you love me”, I say to the inanimate stuffed animal I’m hugging, hating myself more than ever

    The fact that hugging them is the closest I’ll come to genuine affection is ropefuel

      If you’re in a position where you can have a pet, then there are tons that need good homes. If you can’t, then there are likely animal rescues near you that could use some volunteers! A large part of what animals need is socialization, so it’s a good way to get your fix.

      I’m sorry that you’re lonely, friend. Volunteering might also be a good way to meet people. I hope things get better for you.
