I divorced her because she spent more than I earned, she was a drunk and did not take care of the children, and she got a DUI on post. She was also abusive to me. The best advice I got was from the post CSM who said sometimes you need to get rid of the wife to have a career.

I can share in the broken love and dreams, the fear, and the pain I compartmentalized at best.

Combo factor-married young and dumb and then I deployed. The military is not at fault for my divorce though. It would have ended eventually, but the stress accelerated the process, for which I am thankful. I was more careful the next time I married and have been in a great relationship for over 10 years now.

She wanted boyfriends while I was deployed and I didn't think that was right.
