Job stress. Wife's can't handle the strain of if they will get "the call" everytime their hubby leaves for work.

A:
I can imagine it to be true. Police officers have probably one of the most stressful jobs, and it would be hard to not bring that home every night. Add to that the low pay, risk of injury &/or death. And being a cop can bring out the worst in a person, if they have a tendency towards being a control freak, it usually exacerbates it. And most cops are arrogant as hell.

A:
typically the type of person who wants a barney fife job is not the kind of person who does well trusting others.. many cops are adrenaline junkies... always more hype... many are not far from being criminals themselves... fantasizing about killing and raping ... power junkies... that is how they know the criminals so well, they are just looking into the mirror to see themselves only to not like what they see... typically not the type to be a good marital partner... those that are near normal will marry psycho women who cannot handle the what ifs and when will he not come home thoughts....

A:
I believe that it is true. Police officers see so much daily, and it hardens them. Many times, they become overprotective, because of what they see. They also spend many hours away from home which can cause tension. There can be trust issues on both sides. All of this is before you may add any other factor such as drinking, drugs, abuse, adultery and/or working hours.
