My (29f) soon to be husband (30m) hit and killed my dog with his car. We're getting married in two weeks and I don't know if I can get past this.

I know there's going to be people that'll be like "just get over it" but please hear me out.

I've been with my fiance for three years. I love him very much but I'm so angry and upset with him. We live on a two acre property with a long driveway. He has a habit that I hate: he loves to come zooming up the driveway at top speed in his truck before swinging into the parking spot. It's stupid, loud, and just plain showing off for nothing. I've told him over and over and over to PLEASE slow down in the driveway in case of an accident but he keeps doing it.

Two days ago I was sitting on the porch with our dogs (one is his the other is mine). The two dogs were running after eachother and playing in the front yard, when my fiance came once again, zooming up the driveway. He didn't see my dog and he hit him with his truck.

I started screaming and ran over to my dog right away and my fiance got out of his truck immediately in a panic. The dog seemed okay at first before he walked away, curled up against his favorite tree, and was gone. I cried like I never have before. My heart feels like it's been torn in two.

My fiance is also heartbroken. He's begged for my forgiveness, promised to stop speeding on our property, sworn he'll do whatever it takes to get us past this.

I don't know if I can. I've had my dog for six wonderful years. He's been my best friend, my confidant, my comforter for that entire time. He was my baby. I slept on the floor with him when he was a puppy, made him birthday cakes every year on his birthday, cuddled with him when he was sick...and he did so much more for me. It almost feels like he killed apart of me.

I know my fiance also loved my dog very much. I know his heart is broken. I know how bad he feels about this, but every time I look at him I feel so angry and crushed about what he did. I feel sick every time I think about what happened.

What should I do? How do I move past this and forgive him? We're getting married in two weeks and I barely want to look him in the face.

tl;dr: my fiance hit and killed my beloved dog with his truck after I warned him multiple times about speeding on our property. We're getting married in two weeks and I don't know if I can forgive him.
