A lot of people kiss their pets or non-human animals in general. I find that very weird. I understand that it is a sign of affection but it seems so off. One reason is that I doubt whether animals really understand this. Also it seems to be on a level of intimacy to me that I find weird sharing with a pet. Not necessarily romantically or sexually (that would be even more weird and wrong and probably illegal). But it is still “more”. I am not sure whether I can really explain why exactly I find that weird.
Anyway, what is something that is weird to you but not to most other people?
I think many people had happy childhoods, enjoyed family life, and want the same when they’re older. Most humans are tribal and often want to be part of a family and, indeed, to add to it.
Personally, I was indifferent to having children throughout my 20s and well into my 30s. My wife was keen, and I wasn’t averse to the idea.
As it happens, it was, by an order of magnitude, the best decision I made in my entire life. It completely altered my perception of self, the world, and everything.
Still sounds like Stockholm syndrome.
You should probably talk to someone, mate.
You haven’t given me a single reason. Just platitudes and the fact that you went along with your so wishes without wanting it yourself.
