Husband is dog-tired of being ignored

Dear Abby:
I love my wife very much. I like giving her back rubs, massaging her feet, cuddling and kissing her. In return she does the same — to her dog, “Barkley.”
Barkley is the only one who benefits from her affections. The dog does nothing for me except allow me to pick up his droppings. What am I missing?

Dear Doggone Puzzled:
What you are missing is something called “reciprocation.” And your wife is missing how resentful you are beginning to feel because of it. If you haven't already done so, “Speak!” to your wife about it and tell her you need some of those demonstrations of affection aimed in your direction — or someone's going to wind up in the doghouse and it won't be Barkley.
Our Barkley:
