Neat freak boyfriend wakes girlfriend up in the middle of the night repeatedly to make her clean cat fur, she gets fed up and lies to him just so he won't come over: 'He'll notice a single strand of cat fur and act like it's the end of the world'

Part of looking for your life-long partner, as a cat owner, is looking for someone who accepts cats. That sounds simple, right? It should be. But that is not always the case. Some people think that they won't have a problem with your cats and then they do, and that's upsetting, but it does happen. Because sometimes, people who have never had cats don't understand cats. And sometimes, people try getting along with cats and fail. Maybe that one is the worst option, because you know they tried, genuinely, and now, you're in a "it's me or the cat" situation that you never intended to be in.

Today's story is pretty much that last one. The man here doesn't have to say "it's me or the cat" for that to be the came. He's clearly unable to deal with the idea of cats or cat fur, and he's really letting it affect his relationship. It looks like the woman here is going to make the right choice though. At least we hope so.

This… is not okay behavior. Waking you up in the middle of the night - multiple times, bothering you until you do as he says, it's insane. Unacceptable. This is your house. Your rules. Your cats. Your sleep. We would have had an issue with him doing this the first time, let alone multiple times.

Look, as much as we are all for doing the hard work to work things out in relationships and not giving up, we also know that… some people are simply not compatible. And it sounds like he has a real problem with your cats. Therefore, if you and your cats are a package deal, then maybe you and him should rethink what you're doing.
