Another thing to consider is that being alone and on the road is really no big deal. You spend the night in a lonely hotel room or you spend the night alone in a more lonely studio apartment. Once you get married and there is someone you love at home with your cute tiny little children it can ruin your peaceful time away.

In addition a wife and family can make it more difficult financially as well. A single guy could fair well on 30K even in most big cities with a family in tow it gets spent fast.

By far the best plan for one dreaming of a life as an airline pilot is to leave all matrimony and relationships to the 9 to 5 stooges. Girlfriends, wives and children just muddy up the waters.
