His Girlfriend Made It Clear That Her Pets Come Before Him In Their Relationship, So He Told Her That His Mom Was First On His Priority List

This guy has been dating his girlfriend for nearly two years, and just a few weeks ago, they got into a big argument over her cat.
Apparently, the cat got out and did not return home for a few hours. His girlfriend blamed him for that– even though it was not his fault– and claimed that if the cat didn’t come back, then he needed to find a different place to stay!
Thankfully, his girlfriend’s cat did end up coming home that same day.
“And the whole thing was brushed under the rug,” he recalled.
However, his girlfriend also happens to have two dogs, and she ultimately told him that if anything ever happened to her pets because of him, then she would kill him!
He honestly thought his girlfriend was joking about that, but she was actually being dead serious.
“And she has constantly reminded me that her pets are the main priorities in her life,” he said.
In fact, she’s even told him that, in case of an emergency– like a fire– he should save the pets first instead of her.
So, that’s why he’s come to realize that he is at the very bottom of his girlfriend’s priority list. He knows that if push comes to shove, she would not hesitate to get rid of him in favor of her pets.

And he just cannot understand that, mainly because his girlfriend still wants to get married and have kids. He thinks that, for that to happen, her priorities would have to be different.
“Because of this, I don’t see myself marrying her if her cat comes before me,” he admitted.
Just the other day, while they were watching a TV show, the topic of parents also came up. Then, when his girlfriend claimed that partners should put each other before their parents when in a relationship, he decided to push back.
“I told her no. Why would I put her above my mom when she doesn’t even put me above her cat?” he vented.
His girlfriend didn’t see it that way, though, and got really angry at him. She even accused him of not knowing the true meaning of relationships.
So now, ever since their fight, he’s been left wondering whether telling his girlfriend that his mom comes before her was really a jerky thing to do.
Even if you love your pets, would you seriously put them before your partner? Do you think he was in the wrong here? How would you feel in this situation?
