[QUOTE="James K., post: 1936808, member: 109764"] I can understand why some people have said the things they say, perhaps i leaned too heavily in one direction in my original post when describing my wife's objections.....that said, i am blessed with a woman who keeps a nice, clean & tidy home. She does more than her share of chores inside the home & outside as well with no complaint. So i can appreciate her not wanting an animal carcass in the house as she would be the one cleaning things up. As for my back, she has already nursed me back to health numerous times since my back surgery whenever i had a spasm for no apparent reason. I had L5S1 Discectomy many years ago. For many months prior to the surgery, i was in incredible debilitating pain. The Series of Cortisone shots did nothing, I could not work, sit, walk, or lay on my back. The only thing i could do was lay on one side & hope the Vicodin would not wear off too quickly.....I was in total Misery as was she. However she stepped up & fought with insurance companies & doctors, cooked for me, cleaned me & gave me hope when i thought I would lose my job & our home. So i can understand her not wanting to repeat any of that.....perhaps the worst of it was for her, watching someone you love be in that state & not being able to relieve any of their pain. As for respect, well respect in any healthy relationship is earned & not handed over like a pair of gloves, Exercising good judgement in a variety of circumstances is a learned skill & takes time. She has a skill for thinking in ways that are not apparent to me , which has saved my bacon in many ways over the years....& vice versa. Selfishness is not really her style, quite the opposite....She has supported my fishing addiction for many decades, even packing my bags & preparing meals for my buddies for the long weekends that she never got to participate in cause it was a guy thing. After thinking about this for several months now, i think that she will come around in ways that will even surprise her. I appreciate everyone's replies & support. It is interesting to say the least.
