This is completely reasonable.
It makes too much sense to be a shit post.

It’s just healthy adaptation. They care for their partner so they found a way to meet their partner’s needs that isn’t overly burdensome.

I mean, what on earth makes you happier than someone you care about being excited to see you?

Ah, I see — we’re calling this healthy now.

I literally quoted their TL;DR.
What you’re trying to suggest is essentially saying ‘Yeah it’s totally fine to think you love your dog more than you love your girlfriend, it’s 100% healthy to treat your human girlfriend like you would an animal’.
Dude, what the fuck, I know Trump is president but let’s not speedrun our way back to the 40’s that quickly. This is either fake or the definition of unhealthy.

Unhealthy would be if you as the other in the relationship (the one seeking affection here) were not ok with this and tried to change it. It Doesn’t sound like the relationship with the dog is negotiable.
I wouldn’t be happy in that relationship because i need emotional mutuality/reflection, which is clearly muted here. But the two partners here are obviously fine with it.
I don’t mean to diagnose anyone but this is fairly common for both trauma survivors and neurodivergence. Animals are just going to always be safer than people for some folks, and those folk also deserve love.

It’s incredible that I have two people in this thread who simultaneously decide that the OP is an unreliable narrator and completely write in their own stories for why this actually isn’t unhealthy.
It’s incredible, truly — the delusion I mean.
