Or perhaps those of us who love our Pilot Wife lives just keep quiet or leave because it is not worth infusing our lives with the deadly poison.
I think maybe it is a simple case of the broken wheels squeal the loudest. There is, for whatever reason, an exceedingly negative culture that has been readily embraced by many online groups, and it is enormously toxic. “How did you meet your aviation spouse?”Īs most of you are far too aware, it is not uncommon in the world of social media for our aviation sisters to be bombarded with negative stereotypes and an overabundance of horror stories regarding life as an aviation wife. So the question in question on this particular night was, as usual, posed with great thought and utmost intentionality.
It is a beautiful, living, breathing, well-thought organism that is changing lives behind the scenes, even when you cannot see it on the superficial surface. It’s more than some random social media banter. and to live this life exceedingly well! Every single one of you matter here. It is about all of us using our experiences, enthusiasm, struggles, and victories to encourage one another to F.L.Y. 2) And then stick around anyway because, though I cannot possibly cover every eventuality of every life on every post, tomorrow or the next I may be addressing something that you need to hear! If you don’t think something applies to you directly, I beg you 1) to consider participating in the discussion anyway because your story and insights might just be exactly what another struggling aviation sister needs to hear to settle her heart in a particular moment. I am doing this because I genuinely care about you, your marriages, and this community. I’m not doing this because I get paid or profit in any way, whatsoever. I wish you knew just how much time I spent considering the implications of every single word I share and the delicate balance I strive to create between laughter and serious, education and fun. I know that sometimes the things I post on my social media page seem random and pointless to you (**gasp!**), but they are anything but! There is oftentimes a deeper purpose behind these posts that you do not see, whether it’s to discreetly answer a question I have been posed by one of the men/women of our aviation community, to address an issue I have been seeing pop up regularly on PW groups, or simply to make us stop and think outside our own little ‘me’ boxes. These are just a few of the hundreds of responses that I received. The response was breathtaking and diverse, as I knew it would be! Because you, my family, are breathtaking and diverse. Tuesday night I asked a seemingly simple question on my The Pilot WifeLife Facebook page: How did you meet your aviation spouse?
