The Military Marriage: 7 Ways To Keep Yours Sizzling!

I was speaking to an acquaintance on the phone one day when she heard
her garage door open. "Oops, gotta go Lori!", she exclaimed. "Why, are
we talking too long?", I asked. "Nope. My husband's home and it's time
for lunch 'n' love."

As I hi-fived her over the phone lines I was happy for her. That's the
way to take care of your man, I thought. And ultimately she is taken
care of. It's no wonder when I see them they're always touching each
other and look as if they have a naughty secret… Continue

Yes it's true. Sometimes, every so often, as you move around the military or associate with people in the military, you will meet her. She's the one who is stirring up trouble in your neighborhood. She wears her husband's rank. Her kids are more well-behaved than yours. Home-schooling makes them smarter. And when you meet her, you will know. She's the one I'm warning you about.

It is unfortunate in our wide and wonderful military, there are some spouses who don't realize they did not enli… Continue
