First of all, AeroAngel is NOT a pseudo name for me. I wouldn't post so much crap. But my ISP address is San Francisco lol. Only so me and the hubby can visit all the porn sites and use our Apple TV and Netflix thru a VPN.
This thread began by a pilot needing advice regarding an Ex Wife. What happened during the marriage, is not relevant. It didn't work out. Bottom line.
Here are the facts.
1. If you have children. PAY YOUR DAMN CHILD SUPPORT ! I got news for ya.. the 25 to 30 % you pay, does NOT cover even 20% of what it takes to raise a child(ren). Please don't assume that CS covers birthday gifts, school outings, new clothes for school etc.
2. Aero, that is great that your marriage works. But honey, I'm a pilot's wife too and its no picnic. And there are no guarantees in life. How many of their wives said the same thing? They may have said the same thing you just said until.. ( you get the drift). Your perception of your marriage is yours, your husband will probably tell it much differently when in the cockpit or over a few beers on a layover with the guys. And Pprune is very much the same. Boys talking boy stuff. I can assure you, some of the same guys saying "I'm single, I'm loving it and beat their chest and swing from a tree as they say it don't prefer it. Let them come home to an empty house, hang out with their friends who have a lovely wife, great kids, the biggest bbq grill on the block and the family dog. It's not that great either. Especially 90 hours a month. There are the man whores though, but they usually code ( full arrest aka heart attack) in flight, leaving open the next upgrade
( nevermind that part, what a way to die!!!!).
3. Gentlemen, there are pros and cons to dating women from any country. If you think its great having an Asian wife because she's so " easy" and not westernized? Don't confuse a successful marriage to someone so submissive. You're not there when she cries to her family and friends that her needs are not met. They aren't all about having a western husband who makes alot of money. You honestly think they wanna massage you every freaking night ? Nope. They don't. They do it out of fear they will be sent back to their country and back to the **** hole 3rd world environment you pulled them from. Why else do you think they are with you? You honestly think the 20 to 40 year age difference is a turn on? Seriously? The massage you get, is so that you will 1. fall asleep and she can go back to talking to her family back home or 2. Get you worked up so much, that when sex begins.. BANG! 5 minutes later... she's .. yep you guessed it back on the phone with her family where she wants to be. I have many many many asian friends who are wives and gf's of pilots and 99% of the time, they talk more crap behind your back that last longer than the long haul flight from DXB to IAH, SFO, LAX etc.
** please not though, NOT ALL ASIAN WOMEN FEEL THAT WAY and NOT ALL PILOTS FEEL THAT WAY. I've met a few pilots who are married to asian women and the wives are happy. And the husbands treat them like WIVES and the marriages work because they are WIVES, not Asian WIVES !
4. Get back to letting us wives know how to squeeze you dry if we decide to leave
I never learned so much. J/K ! If my marriage goes sour.. it won't end in divorce I can tell you that
" it's cheaper to keep her" says him. " Good morning darling! try this new coffee creamer, taste just like almonds
