Hi, TMC, I just finished reading your posts, and thought I would let you know you are not alone here in having a cop for a H. My H has been one for a long time. When he was still in the academy, the city had a meeting and reception, with the mayor, chief, and all the bigwigs, along with all the families of the cops to be. They asked the spouses to raise their hands if they had seen a difference in behavior in their spouses since entering the academy. I raised my hand, looked around and almost all the other spouses had done so too. It really changes them, and then when they are out on the street, seeing the dregs of society, it's even more pronounced. After years of being on the street, with all the police groupies, and with me being busy raising our S, H decided to strike up a "friendship" with one of them. I am not saying your H is doing this, I just know how easy it is for this to happen. We've had cops have sex with prostitutes while on duty.

My H got mean, like yours has. Yours is a bit young for a MLC, but with the job he has, he may sometimes wonder if that is all that's out there,(bad people)and start acting like everyone is just out there for what they can get. My H got really jaded like that.

Anyway, things have turned around for us. Whatever your H is going through is going to take some time to get resolved.
