So I post a lot of pics of my kitties on Facebook. As a kid, I didn't have many friends. I was adopted into a family full of crazy people. My parents never made me feel special. Everything else was more important than me. I was extremely abused, emotionally and physically by my adoptive parents. My whole life animals have been a huge part of my life. My pets were always there for me. They didn't hurt me like my parents did.
My pets are my kids. I don't have real life friends and no family except my husband and his parents. A lot of people post pics on FB of going out with their friends and family or pics of their kids. I post pics of my pets and recently someone on FB commented on one of my cat photos that I'm obsessed with my cats and they are very afraid for my future human children since I am so obsessed with my animals. It was an extremely negative comment and it really hurt my feelings.
Here is what I replied:
I'm not crazy, it's just that they are all I have. No human family other than my in-laws and husband. My family has four legs and they are covered in fur. The cats and Berry are all I have. Some people post tons of pics of their kids, or going out with friends.. My pets are my kids and I don't have friends to go out with.
She replied she was just joking.
Sometimes I really hate Facebook.
