DIE ON THIS HILL
relationships

Refusing to get a pet is a valid dealbreaker

This hill is unclaimed. Nobody is willing to die on it. Yet. First blood pending.

  • Pay, and you hold it.
  • Anyone can dethrone you for more.
  • Every claim stays on the record.

No claims on the record.

The other side

Pets entered most households sideways. A stray at the door, or a coworker's litter. Nobody wrote it into the terms of the relationship. A dog means fourteen years of vet bills and cancelled trips, and the partner refusing is often the one who would carry most of that. Leaving a good match over an animal that does not exist yet is a bad trade.
