It MIGHT NOT be personal. Not that you should leave it at that... but it might not be the Puppy's charisma.
Oh I have absolutely zero doubts that this issue is primarily my wife's, and preceeds me by many years. As her husband, it obviously AFFECTS me, but it's very much not ABOUT me, I realize.
I am content, however, and try to focus on the many blessings that I do have in my life. I only throw it out there to be transparent, as it would be disingenous of me to portray my marriage as perfect. It's nearly-perfect in every other single area -- even special, among the many couples I know -- and yet deeply flawed in this one.
