Why Plants Are Better Than Boyfriends
By The Frisky. Posted on .
I don't have a dog … or a boyfriend. Once upon a time, I had both. This is not a country song by the way, I am going to take this in a different direction so stick with me. If I did have a dog, I might be writing about all the wonderful ways my imaginary dog, Sprinkles, enhances my life in the absence of a man. But Sprinkles is just a dog I met on the street while her real owner was walking her. And my landlord doesn't allow pets in the building anyway. So that's neither here nor there. For now, I'll have to bestow all my loving praise upon my very cherished succulent, Curly. A loyal plant can bring much joy to a single ladies' life. Curly has been with me now for almost four years and I feel like we have a very solid relationship.
