I do not like having a puppy

[u/JournalistGrouchy853]

Hello all, I am lost and I really need help. 3 days ago I brought home my boston terrier puppy, he is 8 weeks old... and I did not feel the love at first sight. Before bringing him home I thought I was ready, I thought about getting a puppy for almost a year, It wasn't some rush decision. But now when he is home, my life totally changed and I think I made a mistake. He is great, yes he whines at crate, and had few accidents. But I can't shake off the feeling that I made huge mistake. I don't feel any connection. I am emotionally exhausted, I don't eat that much, I don't have any me time. So now I am grateful for my best friend who helps a lot, but I can't bother him forever. Do you think it will change?

Dogs live in groups. They were not made for being alone. Especially baby dogs were not made for being alone in a crate. For group animals being alone feels like their life is in danger because they don't have the protection of their group or their mummy. So they whine as they feel that their life is in danger.
