Moving in together is a big step in any relationship, but what happens if problems arise right away? One man found himself in a difficult predicament when his sweetheart gave him an ultimatum: it was either her or his pet beagle, Molly.
The only problem was that, although he genuinely cared for her and wanted to be with her, his fiancée hated his cute dog. She hated Molly so much that she forced him to decide between saying goodbye to her and giving up the puppy.
Rather than give up, the man decided to post on Craigslist about his predicament in the hopes of finding advice and perhaps even a new home for Molly. He stated in his article, “My girlfriend does not like my beagle Molly.” That means I have to find her a new home.
He went on to highlight Molly’s purebred ancestry and their four years of togetherness as he continued to describe her qualities. Despite her lack of training, he claimed she is enjoyable to be around and likes playing games. Although Molly loves to be spoiled, she does require some upkeep, especially for her long hair and nails.
The man also mentioned some of Molly’s less glamorous habits, such as her tendency to sleep throughout the day while he’s at work and yap all night. But he made it plain that Molly always brings him happiness and that she only ever eats the best, most expensive food.
However, the end of his post took a surprising turn. He quietly revealed his true motives by adding, “So… anyone interested in my 30-year-old, selfish, wicked, gold-digging girlfriend?,” rather than searching for Molly to move in with a new family. Come get her! I really want her to find a new home as quickly as possible, and so does my dog!
This unanticipated turn of events showed the man how committed he is to his loyal companion Molly. By lying to the readers, he quietly let them know that he didn’t respect his girlfriend’s ultimatum. Who, after all, makes someone choose between their cherished pet and a loving partner? Some others claim that his girlfriend got exactly what she deserved.
This story is a heartfelt reminder of the intimate bond that individuals have with their dogs. It’s hard to put into words how much dogs like Molly make our lives happier with their steadfast love and company. Urging someone to give up their animal companion may be extremely painful since animals become a part of our family.
Let’s give this man credit for acting morally and standing up for his loyal friend. With her tail wagging, Molly is a nice puppy who needs love and attention. Perhaps in the future, the man will come across someone who values Molly as a member of their family instead of just accepting her.
Let’s share this charming and funny story with our friends and family to honor the bond that exists between people and their beloved dogs. After all, we can all learn something from this man’s brave choice.
3 Stories of People Who Became Homeless During Hard Times
“We’re going to live inside that house, silly! Right, Dad?” my daughter Kelly chimed in.
As I nodded, the reality of our new life began to sink in. Yet, the moment I opened the doors, something was wrong. The house was in disarray — someone had been there.
“We’ve examined the entire perimeter of the house and found no sign of forced entry, sir,” the officer reported after I called 911.
That evening, I got an anonymous call. In a robotic yet menacing tone, the voice told me I had 24 hours to decline all that Mr. Grives’ left me, leave the house, or else I would lose everything I love.
The mansion came with Mr. Grives’ loyal staff, and one of them warned me that this could be the doing of Mr. Grives’ eldest son, Christopher. I resolved to go to the cops in the morning.
But in the morning, my kids were vanished! Although the clever perpetrator had managed to hide his face from most of the CCTVs in and around the house, there was one he didn’t know about.
Mr. Grives’ staff watched in horror as they recognized the leader of three thugs drugging my children. It was Christopher.
From there on, the cops put everyone on the task of tracking Christopher, and didn’t rest until later that afternoon, when Christopher were spotted on the border of the state with my kids in the back of an old van.
Christopher was arrested, and my children were safe. But their fear had set in deep, and I had a choice to make: to heal and embrace the gift that kind soul left us, or to walk away, rebuilding from the start.
“Daddy, are we going to leave our home again?” Kelly’s question broke my heart.
I wrapped my arms around them. “We’re going to be okay. You want to know why?”
“IBecause the most valuable thing we have is right here, in my arms. So long as we stick together, we’ll always be rich in the most important way: love.”
While Brandon was blessed with children who understand the value of kindness and love, Mr. Greg wasn’t. Coming up next is his story.
3. Mr. Greg: My Teen Daughter Humiliated the Homeless, I Had to Teach Her a Lesson
I always thought I was doing right things for my daughter, Jane. I made sure she had everything she needed, but I missed teaching her something crucial — compassion for others. This hit me hard a few days ago when I lost my wallet.
After a fruitless search, I returned home to find Jane mocking a homeless man and his daughter at our doorstep. The shock set in when the man handed me my wallet, untouched. I was moved by that man’s gesture.
But Jane dismissively called them “trash,” and spoke to them with so much disgust…it broke my heart. I knew I had to fix this.
That evening, I invited the man, Mark, and his daughter for dinner. It was my chance to teach Jane about generosity.
“Dad, check the money! He probably stole it!” Jane said as I checked my wallet. Everything was there.
“All the money is here, sweetie. You’re mistaken,” I told her.
Seeing Mark’s and Lolita’s discomfort, I invited them to stay for dinner.
“Why don’t you guys join us?” I said. “It’s the least I can do to thank you.”
During dinner, Jane gave them paper plates instead of proper dishes.
“Why not use the nice dishes I got you for your birthday?” I suggested.
As we ate, I encouraged Mark to share his story, but Jane kept interrupting with rude comments. Eventually, I lost my patience.
“Shut your mouth, Jane!” I snapped. “You don’t know nothing. Misfortune could strike anyone.”
I then revealed a painful truth to Jane. “It’s my fault. I worked too much, especially after your mother passed. We were the same once,” I confessed. “Do you remember our ‘camping trips’? We were actually homeless.”
Jane was stunned. “How did we get back on our feet?”
“A kind man gave me a job. That changed our lives,” I said with a sigh.
Then, I looked at Mark. “And now, it’s my turn to pay it forward,” I told him.
Mark nodded. “All I did was what a decent human should do,” he said.
“I had no idea, Dad. I’m sorry,” Jane said after a pause.
“It’s okay, honey. It’s not too late to learn from this,” I told her.
When it was time for Mark and Lolita to go, I suggested, “Why don’t you both stay the night? We have plenty of room, and it’s getting late.”
Mark hesitated, then gratefully accepted. “Thank you, Greg. This means a lot.”
But I knew I wasn’t done helping them. Offering them a night’s shelter would not alleviate their problems. So I made a decision.
A little kindness costs nothing, guys, and I was ready to make sure that little Lolita and her dad had a good life.
The next day, I offered Mark a job as a driver and arranged a temporary home for them. “And I’ll help you until you’re back on your feet,” I promised.
“Oh, Really?” Mark gasped. “Nobody is this kind nowadays! I won’t let you down, sir,” Mark told me in tears. “Thank you so much!”
The smile on Lolita’s face that day made me realize I’d done the right thing. As for Jane…my Janie changed. She became a better person, and I’m so glad for that.
