Sure, there are times I think how much easier life would be if DH quit the airline industry and took a more "traditional" job. I know, though, that being stuck behind a desk isn't what makes him tick. DH has been fascinated by airplanes since he was a child, and who am I to tell him that he can't go after his dreams? Yes- there are days when I'm bitter that we sacrifice so much but see so little in return. Yes- there are times when I get upset that I see more of my landlord than of my husband. But deep down I know I would be very sad to see him leave his career, especially if it was due to me. Its so rare these days that someone gets paid to do something that they love, and I'm willing to compromise a little on my part to make sure he's happy.
At least, that's what I try to tell myself every day!
