Oh my god break up. Break up two years and eleven months ago.
I am a pet person. My partner is not; he likes animals well enough, but he can't deal with the messes they make. We live in separate houses. It can work. But you know what my partner has never, not once done? Expressed even the slightest resentment that part of my schedule will always center around making sure my pets have care. He even regularly make my life easier by stopping by my house to feed and check on my pets when I'm busy or out of town, as long as he doesn't have to have them in his house. That's what compromise between "being an animal person" and "not being an animal person" looks like. Not . . . whatever this is.
