Interestingly my marriage ended while still in Talair...thus home every night.

I was shattered at the time however now think I am the luckiest guy around...no nagging wife but a great kid I am raising myself.

I have a Philipino Amah who takes care of the W I and E and the F is available all over the place

the rules

Rule 1. Pick a partner that loves and supports you and your dreams / ambitions.

Rule 2. Keep your _ _ ick in your pants apart from when your home.

And you are on the way to a happy family life.

All professions can cause strains on family if not self managed properly. I know many an accountant and lawyer that has worked too many hours and played around / thus busted marriage to boot.

Aviation might be present a couple of more strains, than others however if you follow the rules you are on the way.

Hah!!

Rule 1. I thought I had.

Rule 2. I did..it was the Missus who couldn't control her urges.

The ultimate strain on any marriage is the unfortunate fact that men and women are not equiped by mother nature to stay together permanently....despite the best efforts of over 2000 yrs of brainwashing by sundry groups like the Catholic Church.

I don't deny that it poses difficulties upon a relationship to be apart a lot, but it's what you make of it. If you try and spend the best quality time possible and keep your pants on while not with each other (yes it's both ways - the one at home and the one who's away!), and your roster isn't so horrendous as to cause you not to appear to be a living human being when you get home, I think a successful marriage can be sustained.

I CONSIDER THAT A IDEAL FAMILIAL LIFE THEY IS A UNCATCHABLE DREAM. HOWEVER IF THE

COUPLE HAS CONFIDENCE IN THEIR RELATION DOES NOT BREAKS. THEY IS NOT SUBJECT OF

WORK, BUT RESPECT IN THE MARRIAGE.

Thumbs up

The Messiah

I believe relationships are easy to maintain in airlines. A lot of the guys I fly with are maintaining steady relationships with several women, so it must be easy.
Haha, amen brother! Keeping a relationship through GA was bloody hard work and failed a number of times, but you'll be thanking your lucky stars you're single once you crack an airline gig
