DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have been married seven years. It’s the second marriage for both of us. We have a good relationship and love each other. I told her before we were married that, while I like animals, I do not want a pet. She’s an animal lover and is now pressuring me to get a small dog. She’s hoping I will change my position, but I will not.
She told me this morning that she might have to leave me and find someone who wants a pet. I told her I understand and will accept her decision. Now I need guidance because I realize that a dog is more important to her than our relationship. Please help. -- ANNOYED IN INDIANA
