I feel mean if i don't let my animals kiss me
I know that their mouths aren't the cleanest but I really appreciate their kisses and affection so I let them give me kisses. I don't let them kiss me on the mouth. Just the cheeks or even up around my nose. I seem to be the only person in my family who feels mean for not letting them show affection so I wondered if anyone else feels this way? I think of my animals as my kids because they're the closest that I have to kids aside from being an uncle and visiting with my nieces and nephew. Maybe a good way to explain it would be to say that I feel like pushing away dog and cat kisses would be like pushing away my nieces and nephew when they hug me.
