Not everyone will find love by finding a partner, getting married, and having kids. For some, love with an animal is much more preferred, and for some, they enjoy their pets more than their spouse or partner. According to a recent study on datingadvice.com, 59 percent of those surveyed would refuse to be with someone who didn't want pets. Only 7 percent of people would not date someone who has a dog, and 11 percent would not date someone with a cat. Interestingly, 31 percent surveyed admitted to loving their pet more than their current partner. For those who are currently dating, 28 percent admitted to using their pet in their dating profile, and 11 percent have even taken their pet on a date.

Anyone who has been married for any significant amount of time will tell you that a spouse loving a pet more than them isn't uncommon, but when it comes to dating, loving your pet more could cause a problem. According to the survey, 10 percent of people feel uncomfortable when a new prospect has a pet from a previous relationship, and 1 in 10 have dumped someone because their pet didn't like them. In an alarming statistic, 1 in 6 have gotten into an argument with a date over pets, and 31 percent say their pet has ruined an intimate moment. When it comes to dealing with pets and a new partner, 45 percent have considered dumping their partner, with only 15 percent considering rehoming their pet.
