Depending on others to fill the hole is never smart by itself - yes, when that other person leaves, that hole is still there. IMO - you choose people to enhance your life as you enhance their life. Filling our own emptiness is very difficult but it can be done. And if you like pets and you can fit them in your lives - Awesome. I do not currently have a dog...but LOVE them!!!
They can make my heart sing.
