Military husband cheat?

Question

How many do you think husbands cheat on there wives while they're gone to war?Basic? School?

Most? 90 out of 100?
80 out of 100? etc.

It was just a question because sadly it happens and I love my husband very much. I mean men are very different from woman most need needs. I just worry and I'm trying to build my trust. I trust him but when he says stupid things like admitting to me my friends hot i freak out. I want to learn not to freak out whats the best way to not get so quickly to get jealous? Please. ( I would prefer an answer from woman because you know what I'm talking about) what maked it harder is that I know his brother cheats on his wife and he's in the military. Or so me and her think.....

Ok lets get things straight here about this cheating thing! I know for sure that wives and hunsbands cheat in the military. If you think it happens more in the clivian sector then your wrong! I have seen this over and over again. Cheating for the most part comes from being lonely and the military will take the bulk of that. I know what I have read is kind of ture, if a person os going to cheat they MIGHT cheat if giving the chance. Someone said earlier that its human nature, and they are correct for most people " male and female". Without the spouse it makes things really hard on this type of person; "remember that we are not all the same" and having the spouse gone for 6 ++ months just plays with someones mind. I am in the military and have been around the world; I have been to Korea, Europe, and deployed, with so many TDY's all over the place. I have never cheated and could not understand how and why married peoplewould cheat. But after being married I understand to a degree way this can happen. It's really the animal side to us, some can control it and others can not; thats straight to the point. If you think that we are not aniamls then you might try looking up what we are. What seps us for a animal, the only thing is knowledge and education.

Ugh, I hate hate HATE this stereotype. Yes, some military husbands/wives cheat. So do civilians. Some people are just immature and can't handle being by themselves for a while. My husband is in the army, and has known a few promiscuous soldiers. Every soldier has the fear when they are gone that something will happen at home. But, there are plenty of military people out there that LOVE there husbands or wives, and would NEVER cheat. My husband and I fall under that category. We have both been cheated on in the past, and know how hurtful it can be. We would never think of doing something like that to one another. I for one can not stand being lumped into a group that everyone thinks of as "cheaters" just because I am an army wife.
I think that if a man or woman is going to cheat, they will do it no matter where they are, whether they are in the military or not. Whatever the statistic is, I know it's got to be close to that of civilians.

The women cheat just as much if not more than men. Another stereotype about the military...if you are in the military you cheat on your spouse. The percentage of infidelity is higher among civilians actually. One person has a bad relationship with a military member, and they are all evil. What it breaks down to, is all humans have an need and a drive for sex. Some just do not care where they get it regardless of their profession, background, education, etc.

Answer 5

I wouldn't just pin it on the husbands.The wifes cheat on their husbands so often when their deployed we have a nickname for them. We call them West Pac Widows. This comes from the term for our deployements being west pacs and they act like widows while their husbands are gone. You could tell when a new unit deployed becuase the one group of ladies would disapear from the E club as their husbands returned and a new one would apear as their husbands deployed.

Now with that being said I was in the Marine Corps so Cheating in bootcamp not possible. Using the head (Restroom) without permission wasn't aloud so a booty call wasnt happening. School maybe, War maybe.

I think less of it goes on since we are at war with both the men, and women who are back home. The husbands deployed are a bit busy and worried about other things. Where I was at it wasnt even an option as we almost never saw women in a setting where it was possible. and I believe the women back home do it less during war time maybe out of guilt

Answer 6

AS an ex military man I would have to say that it happens alot. You are away from home and you and your spouse get lonely. Doesn't mean they are not still in love with thier spouse. They are just relieiving some stress. Nothing can happen in a marriage that two people can't work out if they really love each other. If your significant other has left for the military you need to stop thinking of what he/she might do and concern yourself with what you are going to do to them when they get back. Never say bad news on the phone or in a letter. By the time they get the letter it will be old news as several weeks before they can get in touch with you to make up or apologize. Sl let sleeping dogs lie. let it go.

Answer 7

I'd say, about 1/100 th the number of wives that cheat on their husbands while they are gone.

Just how ya gonna cheat in basic or during a war ?

You think husbands are going down to the local club to pick up chics during basic or in Iraq ?

You sound like someone who is fishing for an excuse to cheat, while your hubby is away.

Answer 8

Unfortunately it happens, but no more, and probably less than in the civilian world. Depending on though where they are located, husbands/soldiers maybe more prone or less prone to cheat. There are too many factors that must be considered, and to use a paint brush to color all those serving with is futile and wrong.

Answer 9

I'm a military wife and have been for a while....

if your husband is a cheat, then he's in the high category,

but there are good military husband like mine, he's not the best, but he's my soldier......when he deploys or traveling on TDYs or whatever... I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that he's being faithful to me, because I truly believe he loves me not to break up our home.... so it all comes down to TRUE LOVE....

Answer 10

Well sorry to say but yes they do and it is very sad. I had friends cheat on there wives and I never think they would do something like that. It does not happen in war or school it happens while there over seas like in Japan. I was in Okinawa and WOW they would go to the soaplands go to the buy me drinky bars and cheat with these ugly girls from the philippines or they would go over to thailand and buy cheap hookers. It was sad to see my friends do that to there wives.

Answer 11

I however would never cheat because of the respect I have for myself , my husband , our children and the vows I took before God.. My husband I trust with everything in me he would never cheat.. with that being said I have seen many many males and females cheat my entire life ( my dad was in the AF) and it makes me sick to my stomach... in training ie BCT you dont have time to think about sex, although I recall when we did our 7 days in the field before we graduated BCT there were a few people who did engage in sex.. to me thats nasty, youve been in the field for how many ever days and have sex unclean and all.. just nasty, now when I got to AIT there were many people who lost their minds by having sex with different people...
Bottom line is this people will cheat regardless if they are in the military or not, if a person has Love & Respect for the person they are Married to or dating then it wont happen.
I have seen many marriages fall apart because of cheating , is it really worth loosing your family over to sneak around with someone , to possibly loose rank ( has yet to see that happen) due to Adultry for 10 -15 mins of semi pleasure?
It is never worth it.!!!
