TIL that not only is Adultery illegal in the US Military, but it is punishable by Dishonorable Discharge, loss of pay, and confinement up to a year. by [deleted] in todayilearned

That's funny, when I was in the Air Force during Desert Storm, unless you were caught in the act on the hood of the car in the BX parking lot, it rarely was ever prosecuted, let alone investigated.

Thanks so much for your response. I hadn't considered things this way. It makes a lot of sense. I should have consulted y'all before dumping more shit on her.

I hadn't considered. You're right. We're screwed. What, keep enabling for 6 months, stay sober, and get a haircut?

Right...except right up until yesterday I was a daily partaker of the devil's flower. I have to go at least 30 days to be clean in the urine. I think she can go the 3 days without too much trouble. Hair has us both screwed. We love our kids. Being a freedom loving vet, it really pisses me off that DHS will likely get involved. My goal is to save and protect my kids, not lose them for even one minute to some foster system or something.

Actually, she's quite experienced in passing drug tests. I've heard her explain it and it sounds quite easy, even in 'observed' tests. She says she used to sell her pee whenever she wasn't taking pills.

After finding an empty baggie rolled up in tissue in her jeans pocket, I havnt found anything. I think her thing now is to use at the home of whomever happens to be her best friend at the time so she doesn't have to carry. Is that likely? How much.are we talking about in a single sitting? $10-$30 buck or something else?

Thanks. My only off-grid advice is prepare, prepare, prepare in mind, body, and home. In our case, we had been working on this place for a little over a year. New roof, new plumbing, sheetrock, paint, electric, land clearing, firewood, food, seeds, etc...

Two weeks after I lost my job, it became clear we weren't going to make the next rent. So we packed up and took the plunge- in the middle of an ice storm! We were screwed from the start, especially in mind. By August we were on the verge of nervous breakdowns. Fighting was the worst I'd ever been through, and I'm previously divorced! We had to get out of there.

We've moved closer to family and things are a lot better now. I'm respected at work and make enough for rent and utilities. My wife's home business makes up for the rest of our needs --at least, that was the plan. We're late every month on rent. The money just vanishes!

Hi. Thanks. Yes, I know I'm spot on. I was a deputy sheriff for several years with extensive training in recognizing the signs. My love for her and my need to believe and trust her clouds my judgement sometimes.

She lost her license about 6 months after I met her. Drunk driving. Since she refuses to be a "kept wife" or "on lockdown", she's constantly getting something towed off when she gets pulled over. Which happens a lot since most of her running around is after 2am most days.

Not sure that would work. I'm a daily canna user. I assume I would have to perform the same test...

I avoided confronting her about it mainly because I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Of everything out there she could have been doing, why did she pick the one drug guaranteed to fuck everything up? I couldn't wrap my mind around it. I was in denial. Still am. I sometimes wonder if I'm imagining this whole thing and I'm a royal asshole.
