Exactly, and that just won’t do.
Conversely a man cant get all slobbery over a woman on a Sub when his shipmates could all suffer or die because of his chivalry.
It’s your job to save the ship, not your girlfriend.
Here is a major issue for me.
This stuff is tough enough, you need to go through psych evals and the worst ones happen when you are underway.
On every mission I have been on, bubbleheads that have been through the gamut snap.
They always snap 2 weeks in or 2 weeks from home due to “family issues”
You’ve left everything behind, family, freedom, love, privacy, sleep
We settle in, we focus on the mission and its cool but its tough when you finally get a family gram while you’re in god knows where and it’s a dear john that’s 24 words and demands money to boot.
Who needs that tension on a boat?
