Ask Harmony Aidsworth
Dear Harmony Aidsworth,
I have always done my best to be the perfect wife and my husband usually treats me very well. However, I have been wanting to own horses ever since I was a little girl but he says that we could never fit them into Hogsmeade! He is rather firm on me not having horses and refuses to buy a countryside estate where they could fit into our life. I am not sure what to do but have no intention of giving up on my dream of having horses. What should I do?

Sincerely,
Equine Enthusiast

Dear Equine Enthusiast,
Depending on your financial status, there could be other ways to achieve your dream of owning a horse! There are many stables that house your horse for you and take very good care of them. Perhaps you could suggest this to your husband as an alternative. However if there is another reason why he is so dead set against you having horses, perhaps you should dig deeper into his reasons. There could be a deeper reason that he just has not shared with you yet.

Sincerely,
Harmony Aidsworth

Dear Harmony Aidsworth,

I am considered to be an old maid and a spinster and I am quite content with that. I live with my life long friend who was one of my dorm mates in Hogwarts and we lead just as happy a life as anyone else. She was a widow at a young age and has since recovered from her husbands death. However, it has come to my attention that her family thinks me to be a bad influence! They think that I am giving her untoward ideals about womens rights as if she is some impressionable teenager when she is a grown woman that is the same age as me. Not only that but both of our families take pity on us though her reasons are a lot more understandable. I have never regretted not marrying but my family just can't seem to understand that.

Sincerely,
So I'm A Spinster

Dear So I'm A Spinster,
It is quite heartening to hear that you have found contentment within your pitiable situation. Old maids are often said to have the best tempers for many occasions and it does sound to me that you have been purporting this belief. As for your friends family thinking that you are a bad influence, perhaps you should look into your own behaviors to try and discern why they might think that. It could be the very same reasons why you never found a husband so that might be a starting point to figuring out why they are against you residing with your friend.

Sincerely,
Harmony Aidsworth
