For 11 years I was in an abusive relationship with my best friend/FP (I didn’t know what an FP was but by reading the description it’s exactly how I treated her). We were both shitty people. It’s been almost a year now and I’ve been doing a lot better with medication and therapy. 

However, my current boyfriend isn’t my FP. That style of relationship seems so toxic to me now that I’m out of the BPD headspace like id been my whole life (yes it does get better!!). Instead I got myself a dog and she’s become my FP. She won’t abandon me no matter what. 

A lot of my friends think I’m too obsessed with my dog but honestly idc? She gives me a lot of comfort and stability. Anyone else do this or am I just a crazy dog lady?
