The marriage is neglected and prioritized beneath their career. I guess if your top EN is Financial Support and you can get all of your other ENs met by others or yourself, then possibly this can work. Not in my case.

This post above is SO TRUE that I cringe just reading it. frown LM

LM,

I read your old posts and have to say you and I are very much in sync. I am glad to see you back here. I am a military intelligence officer and like you i would imagine, there is no "I'll get to it tomorrow."

No. It has to be done now. It doesn't matter how many hours you have been on duty, or when you slept last. There is no other option. It does come at tremendous cost to those who love you though, doesn't it.

SWW
