Hello, SterlingOrchid, and welcome to Psych Central!

I am not happy with what you say about this guy. He does sound using and controlling to me. Maybe you think that this guy is better than no guy at all, but I certainly hope you can find someone more respectful and loving of you and who treats your dog right for that matter. He doesn't sound like he is very decent at all.

Yeah, let him go out and find that "good-looking and prettier" partner. His saying that is emotional abuse as far as I am concerned.
