I am glad things worked out. My wife kept complaining about the dogs. Now she never threatened to leave me over the dogs but would not give me a chance to breath. I went and loaded a pistol. She asked what I was doing. I told her that I loved her way more than the dogs and I was going to shoot every one of my dogs just to make her happy. She would not let me shoot the dogs. Now she still gives me a hard time but tells me to do something to fix the problem.
I am about to change how my kennels are set up so a dog will not get wet when it rains and whine all night. Because my wife is not happy about the dog whining. Now I was planning on fixing the leak in the dog house anyway but now she thinks I am doing it to make her happy
Life is good when I work to make her happy.
I think that it is important to make your wife feel like she is the most important thing in the world to you. Then she will put up with what makes you happy. Plus like T-Bob said be decisive and have a back bone. She may get bent a bit but she will respect you as long as you do it with her in mind. I will not tell my wife to make me a sandwich for me when she is mad (don't know what she would out in it). But I let her say what she has to say, I let her know she was heard, and then I do what I am going to do while she fusses at me
