Those wives who cheating will most likely NOT answer this question. Sure it's very lonely while he's gone. But that doesn't give you a right to destroy everything you and your husband have together. That's just SELFISH, plain and simple. And there are plenty of selfish people on the internet that will help you destroy your marriage. YOU DECIDE IF IT'S ALL WORTH IT. I THINK NOT.

Lets not split hairs. Sure a military husband can also cheat. And how much cheating time do you think he has to do that, while at the same time most likely doing his part to serve his country and fight in a DAMNED WAR??? Be realistic. There's way more time, and it's much, much easier for the wife to cheat and that is exactly what is happening MOST of the time.

I am the wife of a Soldier and a former Marine, and I am behind you 100%. Yeah, 6 months is lonely, and a year is almost unbearable. But some of us are in love, and realize marriage is a lifelong thing and not a 'love the one you're with' thing. And ladies, aren't those homecomings fantastic? I'm sure lots of guys cheat over there, but I hope mine hasn't---as I'm faithful each time. I consider it not only immoral, but really, really unpatriotic! What an awful thing to do to someone who is drained and tapped on behalf of his country! I think the wisest thing to do is to separate yourself from the herd. A friend of mine told me to befriend wives of those who do not work and deploy with my husband. Give it a whirl at present or your next PCS. Military wives can be very catty, as they have a lot of TIME to devote to drama.

Apparently somebody lit a fuse under your behind honey. I'm a military spouse and I've never cheated on my husband. Nor would I. I know that to alot of people, there is no excuse for cheating, however, taking into consideration the fact that I've recently learned alot of my husband's friends have been cheating in Iraq, I can't say I really blame half these women, IF THAT'S THE CASE. If not, then no, there is no excuse to cheat. Just because our husband's serve in the military, it doesn't give us a right to serve the town while he's gone!

I've never cheated on my husband, and he is gone way more than even the regular part of the military. meaning he doesn't go away for a year and get to stay home a year, he goes away and stays gone six to eight months, returns leaves four months later and sometimes goes to school in between all of his time being home. But I agree with you those who run around cheating, well they are either emotionally weak and need that male attention, they really don't love their husbands and married them for the benifits, or there were problems in the first place. Nobody really knows why one cheats, who knows maybe he cheated on her and it's pay back......as the one lady said though TWO wrong def. do not make a right. I know if mine ever did I def. wouldn't run off and try to cheat on him, I'd try working it out and seeing what it is I might need to fix to make him happy so he didn't want to stray. Sometimes couples just get to use to each other and we can slip right into taking that daily love and affection, and sex is right there for granted with out even realizing that it's happening.

Look at all the military husbands that are cheating on the wives that are at home, not going out to clubs, raising the kids and loyal to their husbands. The men are worse than the women. It is happening both ways.

Yes, I agree with u completely however, not all military wives cheat. My husband's in the Navy and I've never cheated on him, ever. There is no good excuse to cheat...period, whether your spouse is in the military or otherwise. Besides, even if your spouse cheats himself, two wrongs will never make a right.

I have never cheated on my husband and he is in the AF, and currently deployed overseas. I know about alot of men and women you have cheated on their spouses while deployed but, for the most part they are to busy to worry about cheating. I know that if my husband cheated on me I would do severe bodily damage and he knows it too.
