Although spouses sometimes opt to travel together, the one who isn’t in the spotlight at the time often becomes tired and bored. When a couple has children together it is essential for one spouse to care for the kids, stay home with them, and try to keep their school and extracurricular schedules intact while the traveling partner is away. Problems will arise in any marriage when one or both partners is constantly away – issues range from lack of emotional support, to sexual dissatisfaction, to feeling single when you are actually married.
