Sometimes we selfishly pet dogs that don't want to be pet.

Fun fact: this applies to non dogs as well

[@yupperzsonson]

Same thing can be said for petting cats. Great information right here, thank you 👏👏

[@stephanie-atarahrose.8149]

Wow . Mindblowing information. A living being who seems uninterested, may actually be uninterested

[@AdrianMark]

Glad to hear someone say it. Now what about dogs that always want to be pet 😂 how do you get them to stop being needy?

[@LoveandMisses]

So well said. I would rather observe a dog than pet them.

I clicked on this because I thought it was Greta Thunberg 😭😭😭

[@thisisnotmyname4700]

To be fair, dogs come up to me all the time and lick me when I don't want to be licked.

now generalize this to human relations, and it will explain a lot of the human condition.
