Why not??
... Not too long after we were wed, my husband (lets call him Adam, not his real name) joined the Army. Insanely proud of my husband, I sent him off to training (which he had to participate in twice due to a broken foot). I was still at that age where a little physicallity goes a long way and lasts a long time. I was also in the mindset that it would be disrespectful to take care of myself while he was away. I wasn't one of those crazy women where "it's cheating". It's not cheating. There's no other person involved. How could it be cheating? So I went on my merry days living on the memories of the last time I got to visit with Adam. When we moved to his new station, we soon learned that he would be deployed to Iraq. When he left, it was several months before a very simple thought crossed my mind. "Well, shoot. There's no way he's not taking care of himself." So, I said to myself, "Self, what the hell."...
