Prior to jumping in to the care of a new person, get over yourself. Do you know how selfish you are? So, it's a good idea to practice thinking of others; putting others first.
You may want to start small. How about a pet? Borrow your friend's cat for the weekend; see how that goes. Or, just jump in and adopt. You'll soon learn if you can handle looking after someone else.
In our case, the first born was a Schipperke; a Belgian shipping dog. She'll be twelve in August, which isn't remarkable because she is well-taken care of. Juno responds with love and a gentle territorial protection that any parent would love. Our biggest challenge is keeping those teeth clean. Juno was the canary in the coalmine; proof that selfish adults can think and care for others.
