Nothings wrong with you or that. I have a few close people, but other than that, it's my animals that I spend my time with most. I'd rather spend time with them than even my own mother.
When I was growing up, we had a dog (Otis who was an oversized pug mix) and on the prioity list, him and many other things came first to my parents before I did. But at the same time, I could talk to him, and he would somewhat respond (more than any teddy bear could do), so in a sense, he was my friend, just like a human friend would be. I spent most of my time with him.
