[quote=Anonymous]I travel/live abroad for work and the majority of the people I work with are men. As a woman, I don't think the separation is usually helpful for marriages. There are some good guys who are all about family who travel regularly, but there tends to be a strong frat boy mentality where many men are having flings on these trips and can justify it in their minds because their families are living financially privileged lives as a result. Its just a different mentality sometimes and I've seen some otherwise good guys make poor decisions. And I have met wives who tell me that they know their DHs would never do anything like that who absolutely are. Some of these guys receive attention overseas from women that they aren't used to and it can be an adjustment. OP, I'm not saying that this is what your DH is doing. He might be one of those good guys, and they DO exist. My point is that the family time/separation factor is not insignificant. [/quote]
