Boyfriend likes his cat more than me?

My bf and I have been together for 2 years.

Last month (around halloween) he adopted a cat because he wanted a pet. Couldn't get a dog because of his lease.

In this short period of time, he as totally been ignoring me and has been less affectionate. And when he does text me, its always about the cat!

I've told him plenty of times how I don't like this but he clearly doesn't care.

2 year relationship being flushed down the toilet all because of a cat?

We do not live together, thankfully. If we did, idk if I'd be able to handle this.

What can I do?

I'm seeing him for Thanksgiving weekend, so I'll see how he is I guess… lol

    I think he just really loves the cat. He obv loves you since you've been dating him for 2 years. Guys don't think about the important stuff. They're dumb trust me. He's probably just enjoying the cat as a pet. He's just excited since he just got it. It's like when parents have their first kid. They're not used to having their own kid so for the first few months they're all about the baby. Then as the baby gets older it starts to become a normal everyday thing and they get used to it.

    Well all I can say is thank god he hasn't gotten you pregnant and you guys have no kids. Imagine that? I can just tell you it's probably a fades and don't worry about it, there's something that must of happen years ago to him and this is why he's being like this to the cat, like some kind of comfort..............
