Um, no. Not all men are sleazebags like the one you apparently married. I had shore leave many times away from my first wife and never once cheated. Men do and can control themselves. Out of curiosity, are you saying this to excuse the things you may have done while hubby was away?

Thunderly-------
I beg your pardon, the 2 fathers of my children were not sleaze bags. They were Men, both nuclear trained and some of the bravest men in the military.
I was not a wide eyed idiot that read romance books and had no idea about real life.
Had I married civilians then then perhaps I would have ignored the difference in sexuality in life, but, I was raised in a family that was military and had a different take on life from the civilian.
Still a double standard, and rightly so, our men went off for months at a time, they under go trials we at home never know of. Once home our men have no desire to relive the past months so the wife and family never knows what is still waking them up at night with nightmares.
Sadest thing I ever heard of was when the Subs pulled into ports after a 3-6 month deployment and was met by the Red cross-- all crew knew knew that here had been a death in the family, parent, wife or child.
These men who explore and partake of the shores in foreign areas are not sleeze people, they know how short life can be.
This has all ways been so for the MEN that sail the seas. A different breed of Men from those that fight on land.
