More TIP on MF
Re: More TIP on MF
Same.
It's just so obvious he's hiding something big, and she is in some sort of denial.

I vote one of the following in likelihood of occurrence:
1. girlfriend (either on or off the ship)
2. enjoys the company of ladies of the night
3. drugs/alcohol
4. he's the good time guy from the ship (you know the idiot who treats everyone, every time)
5. gambling issues
I wonder whats the point of getting married if you're never going to spend any time with that person.
Well, some people feel that way about all military marriages. I know quite a few people whose spouses aren't cut out for moving around frequently, finding a new job every year or two, reenrolling kids in new schools, etc, so they establish a home in one place while the member PCSs and does their thing. I was deployed with a Navy Master Chief who had a set up like that. They'd been doing it over 12 years and it was working for them.
It's not what I'd do, at least I don't think I would, but every time we PCS, I have a job lined up, built-in friends, and no kids to worry about. Maybe I'd feel differently if my husband were home 6, deployed 6 and I were a civilian.

MH is deployed 8 months out of the year. It sucks but I couldn't imagine not being married to him. You do what you have to do to make a marriage work. The military lifestyle can be a weird one.
And I'm not surprised she DD'd. After everything that was brought up, I don't think she can be in denial anymore. I just hope she is weighing her options and figures things out, for what's best for her and DD.
On top of that, she posted under her real (first and last) name.
