Divorce"..if you join the military"?

Question

Answer 1

umm..no..thats gotta be the stupidest reason that u divorce someone u love..and ur married to...she cant support his decisions?she cant respect the choices he made? then why did she commit and get married when she couldnt compromise..if shes losing her man for a certain amount of time..then hes not gaining much either..hes risking his life for us..hes leaving his friends and family and his home to serve for us..and she cant respect that? thats horrible

Answer 2

i hear about alot of people who get

divorced while in the military.

Answer 3

Maybe she cant take the stress of knowing if hes okay or not you never know what will happen in the military not everyone is equipped to be a military wife its alot of work and alot of stress dont assume till youve been there talk to her maybe its not the right move for them!

Answer 4

Honestly I would have did it too! I'm in the military and I know that it is some very wicked and evil acts that takes place! So if he truly loves her he'll run quick for his family and take back his marriage. It is not a place for married couples and also has the highest divorce rate ask someone unless they have changed their life around, but if you are young temptation is something you sometimes cannot ignore! So keep your head up because it's probably you!

Answer 5

Anyone that does that didn't want to be married anyway. Anyone that is in the military deserves our utmost respect. Divorce is not it. He will be stressed out enough without the extra baggage but in a court of law, I don't think the Judge would like that as an excuse....and I don't either!

Answer 6

I don't know if it happens alot but his wife is a sorry piece of work.  Most times when a man is married and then joins the military it is because he doesn't have many other prospects to try to make a good life for him and his family

Answer 7

Sounds like they both are at fault.

His career change should have been made by them as a couple. It definitely will affect her life in many ways. She doesn't sound like a very committed partner if she is ready to abandon ship so easily.

Not much you can do but urge them to work it out.
