If there is a particular user who's posts you do not want to see, you can use the "Ignore" feature.

Click on "User CP" (upper left side of your screen, it's the farthest left option in the blue bar that goes all the way across the screen). Then, on the left side of the screen you'll see various options to customize your JC display. Almost all the way at the bottom of that column on the left side of the screen, under Miscellaneous, is the link to "Ignore Lists". It's a great feature. Use it!

Just my own little perspective...

I think that it can work as long as both people are committed. Also, I really love seeing how much my husband loves what he is doing now! Seeing him so happy makes me happy. I was getting really tired of listening to him complain about his job *before* he became a pilot. I'm sure that your wife will love seeing you happy, too!

People spend their whole lives trying to figure out what they want to do... If you know what you want to do, then you have to go for it!

P.S. Jetgirls is great :)

I gotta say I'm pretty impressed with Mr. Evangelista! He definitely accomplished what he set out to do. Now I need to get my ass in gear.

Why all the hand-wringing? Just get divorced first. Then you can do whatever you want with your life.

Lots being said about "making sure the wife understands." But little or nothing has been said about you. Consider: you are going to be gone for 3 or 4 days at a time. You are going to be in close quarters with a lot of females: flight attendants, gate agents, crew schedulers, fellow pilots, etc. These are people who have chosen a career and lifestyle with a lot similarities to yours. Which means you have something in common, something shared that draws you together. A good portion of them are likely to be attractive. There are a lot of jokes about it, but in my experience, the airline business seems to attract a sizable share of good looking women to it.

Now consider this: You are on day 4 of a 5 day. You're tired, you're homesick, maybe it has not been the smoothest of trips, so you are a little depressed or frustatrated. And now that hottie flight attendant you have been flying with all month is letting it be known that she is available to you if you are interested. What are you going to do? Are you strong enough?

Consider your own strengths, not just your wife's. If there is infidelity in the marriage is just as likely to come from the person on the road as it is from the person left behind.

I dont know why this Brand X guy is stalking me and harassing me but it is pretty strange. He has some vendetta for me, and everyone else it seems. I have not gotten ONE nice thing spoken to me about him but ENDLESS private messages telling me what a closed minded, judgmental jerk he is. Also, I always see people getting aggravated with him and telling him to mind his own business.

I had thought that he and I had agreed to not post comments on each others threads or to talk to each other, but he won't go away. I don't know why.

Is there something I can do to get this guy "blocked" from me at all? Has anyone ever asked someone from this website to ask him to stop being such a confrontational boob? I can't be the first one to feel this way.

Don't even worry about BX. He's a poser, troll, etc.....whatever you want to call it. By ignoring his completely ignorant posts, you'll take fuel from his fire. I know it's not easy....the dumb stuff that he posts begs for replys.....which is EXACTLY his motive. It's obvious he's not who he says he is and I'd imagine his days on JC are numbered (pure speculation though).

On topic.....good luck with your decision on becoming a pilot. Sounds to me like communication is the key element.

Serious thought on that: if one is that susceptible to temptation, maybe the first thought should be whether to marry...?
 
Remove the social and financial incentive for marriage, divorce rates magically will go down! :) Seriously.
 
Folks you do know that you can ignore some peoples post by adding them to your ignore list. It will help our JC Bloodpressure alot not having to read it. If youve ignored me then youve missed out on this great peice of advice.

Yeah I just used the ignore list for my problem I was having.
 
I'm on wife no. 2.

The first one was well ... not good.

My current (and last) wife is not only supportive but one helluva cool person and I'm lucky to have found her.

That being said the airline life can be hard on relationships at times but it really comes down to the maturity of BOTH parties. If you're both adults and reasonable it's really no harder than any other occupation. If both or one of you are selfish and or not mature well it really isn't going to matter what job you have the marriage will fail at some point. And, that point is usually when one person becomes so miserable they finally decide to do something.



So, it just all depends on the people involved - the occupations involved are merely excuses.
 
I spent a year and a half in Iraq. I never thought once that my marriage would end. The key is make your wife feel like she is the most important thing on this earth to you. My wife is my true north.
