We crave for love. Each of us. Sooner or later, more or less. We go around searching for someone who for once in life can make us feel special. It's an incredible feeling, that! To mean the world to someone. And having a pet is more or less same. I have a cat. I remember last night I was having my dinner on kitchen table at 1 in the midnight and she came around rolling near my legs. She meow'ed. It's her way to ask for milk. And I hate it because I know as soon as she's full, she'll leave. But I still do it. I still feed her knowing she doesn't love me, she's just for the food. But some days, she'll stay. She'll not come to me and kiss me but she sits near me and meows. I know she's not asking for milk then but she just likes to talk. And that little time once a week or so, I really enjoy.
Maybe at that time I realize how and why human behave. We are bound to the insecurities that we hold within us. And just like we search for that someone, pets fill the void. It's difficult to explain but they are so profoundly attached sometimes, for a moment it does feel like you are the world to someone. And it's still completely different than what you feel with a similarly attached human being.
P. S. - get a pet, you'll understand ;)
