Interesting

Its interesting, Ive noticed...maybe you have as well. In a social situation, do people talk to animals (pets and whatnot) to feel better in an awkward situation or when they have nothing to say? Is that one reason people have pets? To be able to have someone to refer to and take the pressure off of a conversation? It would be like taking a one on one convo and turning it into something else. Could that be the reason why people think that if a man or woman that they date do not like their pet then they are ineligible for a second meeting? I wonder if vets have a high risk of social anxiety disorders. I wonder if social anxiety disorder runs higher in demographics who own pets. Its a theory to be considered. For your consideration, Smitty.
