Question of The Day- Marriage, Jobs, Relationship

All good picks! Lots of temptations and late night hours with the last two.

@dgobucks226 ......They take their mate for granted and think everything will be okay and it isn't.

Yes, very good points! And many people have given those reasons in citing occupations that strain marriage or relationships.

@celticeagle Taking one for granted causes a lot of friction for sure! No one likes to be unappreciated.

@dgobucks226 Especially touching nice women that they visit just because their profession.

@LadyDuck There is something to that, even though they are suppose to be professional

Many hours away from family treating patients can strain a marriage or relationship.

@dgobucks226 , yes. It is, thank you. I hope everything is going well for you too.

Very true "C." Two major reasons for the marriage strain Hope everything is going well today for you

@bluesa Yes, a great week so far. Terrific weather, the pumpkins came out great and I will post a picture of them next week. I am keeping them inside for now because the squirrels will pick them apart.

@dgobucks226 Now you've mentioned a lot of names that I didn't know had fidelity issues. I knew about two of them.

All excellent examples. Dangerous jobs like policeman have to put strain and worry on any marriage. Doctors with long hours can make relationships strained very true. And politicians, with an all consuming job in addition to infidelity (see Clinton). Also Schwarzenegger, Sanford, Edwards, Spitzer, Giuliani, McGreevey and, depending on your definition of unfaithful, Weiner.

@just4him Politics is a hard business on marriages it seems

@dgobucks226 Thanks DB Actually anyone who needs to work for long hours or is away for a long period of time can cause a lot of resentment, stress and hurt feelings in any relationship

@jujunme So very true jujunme

Yes the hours I am sure can cause issues. And the difficulty of their job makes it difficult to talk to their spouse about their day. Physicians, a lot of stress definitely. Very good examples.

Yes, definitely jobs which take time away from family strains a marriage. Good ones!!!

Yep, I agree. Other responders also agreed with you examples. Thanks for the input

@dgobucks226 You are welcome.

@dgobucks226 Thank you for posing such an interesting question

@YesWay My pleasure

Could not agree more! And your reasoning is spot on Thanks for participating

Far away jobs, yes, that is true. I would image those in the military being away from home make it difficult on a marriage,

@dgobucks226 you meet after many years you even forget you were married

Yes, they are on call all the time it seems.
