The way you write makes it sound like she was your first love. And first loves really really hurt when they end. It sucks. It took me years to get over my first love. It takes time. Let yourself grieve and heal.

Also going forward into the future, it will be a rare ex that would be ok with just hooking up. If you just want sex, find a friend with benefits or something. Hooking up with an ex can bring back feelings for both people, for one person (who then gets hurt all over again), or it’s just not the same because both of you have moved on and it’s kinda pointless.

My burn treatment is a layer of some medicine - neosporin, burn creme, or silvadene, something oily and antiseptic - and then saran wrap over the burn.

1)Reduces friction to zero, 2) prevents the sensitivity that comes from heat loss, 3) accelerates healing and reduces the chance of scarring by allowing nutrients to pass through moisturized skin.

If your dad wants to sell purebred puppies he needs to be a bit more informed about how to prevent situations like this one. The fact he left you supervising this dog and the only instructions given to you was to use a BB gun any approaching animals was stupid AND negligent. Your father is a dumbass.

It happened twice before and your dad still wasn't smart enough to figure out that if he wants to breed her he needs to keep her away from all other dogs (and obviously not out in your yard) when she's in heat?

Having an airsoft gun near the door as a way to stop her getting pregnant is the dumbest, most braindead solution you could possibly have dreamed up. Not to mention it being cruel and having the possibility to hurt your own dog.

I understand that you're a minor and not the culprit in this scenario - my comment is not stating that giving dogs away for adoption is bad; In this case, it sounds like the correct course of action.

My comment was referencing the poor state of care that lead to a purebred dog being left unattended and having an unintentional pregnancy because of this. The fact that this situation occurred is the indicator that your father is likely not a good pick to be a pet owner.
