Agree with the above. My wife of 20 years is fiercely independent, which means that when the water heater dies, or there's a bat in the house, or the kid gets sick, I don't even get a text about it. She just handles it.
Is she the perfect wife? Heck no. Two type A personalities definitely clash. But I wouldn't trade her for some tiny blonde pilot show-wife who can't do anything for herself. This job demands a spouse who didn't NEED to be a spouse.
The ones who went from Daddy's house to the sorority house to your house probably aren't going to make it as an airline wife.
