Did the issues happen when she went to the navy, or soon after the marriage? Could mean something, like the issues are just hard because you are missing each other due to distance if they started when she went away. If soon after the marriage, maybe its something that you need to seek a marriage counselor for, could be deeper issues.

I hipe you can take it.
Look you wife is around manly men, all day. the temptation is overwhelming. She does not have you there for Her to cry on when things are tough, or when she is feeling lonely.
The point im tring to make is, The more problems you create while she, the more likely shes going to bang one of those guys for comfort. So if you cant fix your mind to just supporting her, then let her go. You have the what you dont know, wont hurt you mentality.

Military life can be really hard on young marrieds. You don't get to develop your marriage relationship the same way most people do and that can lead to problems down the road.

Time and distance can erode trust in each other. She's young and healthy and so are you. You both have needs and desires that aren't getting filled. It's natural to think the other one might act on those needs and desires while they are away so long.

You need to do whatever you can to build and maintain trust. Telling her what you did with almost every hour of your day is one way of doing that. Writing her a lot of email is another way. Every time you think of something that involves her you should tell her about it.

Talking as much as you can on the phone is important because she can hear how much you miss her in your voice. Sending her little thoughtful cards and gifts is another way to touch her.

It takes a special person to be married to someone in the military who will be gone for long periods of time. It takes loads of trust and committment and a lot of people aren't up to it. I wish you well in keeping your marriage alive.

*speechless for a moment* That is, sincerely, one of the loveliest, most gracious pieces of advice I have ever read on this site, HeSearches. Wow! Thank you for taking the time to send that to the OP - whether he recognizes the depth and magnitude of your sage advice or not, it affected me profoundly. Well done.

its hard not to have trust issues when someone is gone for awhile. because we know how "some" other people are.but if they really love each other then temptation shouldnt be a temptation.
