  I mean, I don’t like cats, but they love me. I think it’s because I ignore them. Not sure why me not liking cat smell is a red flag

    OP didn’t say “dislike cats”, they said “not being nice to them.”

    If you are actually mean to them, I’d say that is a red flag. But ignoring them is fair.

      I’ve been told I don’t hate dogs, because I treat them kindly but mostly try to ignore them. I find dogs incredibly annoying, but it’s not their fault and there is no reason they should suffer for my opinions.

    Same, cats are fine. Them crapping in my garden not so much. Cleaning a litterbox… not happening.

  I love cats and I don’t respect their boundaries. No cat butts will be left unpat, you furry reaper of doom

    I get what you mean but I suppose we both at least know what we’re getting into and respect the consequences of talking shit.

    I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately actually; I think I’m just naturally someone who needs spicy relationships. I’ve had people call me toxic but tbh my husband now that I’ve been with for five years total doesn’t feel that way because he gives just as good as he gets. You can’t go into the restaurant and order the 5 alarm chili then get mad at the cook. You ordered it; either eat the damn thing or admit you were wrong and if that was hard for you maybe order mild next bout.
