是的，与消防员一起生活有一些负面影响。这是一个压力很大的职业，偶尔会产生一些副作用，例如劳累或创伤的烦恼，他们不禁带回家。有时候，彼此之间的夜晚很困难，导致你们俩的睡眠不足。高癌症发生率和极端危险会给消防员的家庭带来很多焦虑。那些冒着生存风险冒着破坏某人心脏的人。但是尽管如此，这仍然是世界上最好的工作，我为成为消防员的妻子感到非常自豪。有时可能很难，但是这是毫无疑问的四个原因，太棒了:
您的支持是特别有意义的. Spousal support is part of any marriage. We all need the encouragement of our loved ones to get through life, to lift each other up when we’re down. But when you support a firefighter, you somehow get to do more than the average spouse because firefighting is so much more than the average profession—many would say it’s a calling.
Firefighters save lives; for this reason, their work has the highest of meaning. They keep people safe, and without them, society would quickly collapse. When you support such a person, you become part of that heroic team. Whenever you sacrifice a little of yourself to nurture a drained firefighter, by extension,你也可以挽救生命. Your love and strength enable them to do what they do—更好的; how cool is that?
You Get to Share in the Excitement.There is never a dull moment in the firehouse. Every day brings new and exciting challenges, so there’s no such thing as “the same ol’ same ol.’’ And here’s the benefit for a firefighter spouse: Because they never get bored, neither do you.
I can’t wait to hear from my firefighter about his day. His stories not only entertain but inspire. “I delivered a baby on I-5, I pulled a child from a fire, I brought a senior back from a heart attack” and on and on it goes. When I call the firehouse I hear the excitement, the pure adrenaline in his voice—and it pulls me right in. The sense of urgency, the “now-ness,” the “in the moment” of it all makes me feel alive—just as he does. His incredible existence makes mine, by proxy, just as wonderful.
新闻媒体似乎只报告了人们彼此所做的坏事。但是，当您与消防员一起生活时，您会听到所有真的很好they do, which instantly restores your faith in humanity; how cool is that?
您可以与坚强，有能力的伴侣一起生活。消防员通常是驱动的，键入具有奉献性质和非常强大的职业道德的个性。做他们所做的事情需要大量的精力和自我牺牲，而这些品质在家中是一个主要的祝福。
My firefighter works hard all day every day. He’s always got several projects, and he basically never quits till he gets the job done. He strives to keep the community safe and his fellow firefighters safer while doing so. This passion is inherent to his character; because of this, I can always count on him to come through for me too. He simply can’t help himself; if he says he’ll do it, he’ll do it.
Firefighters are problem solvers and fixers by nature, and this is especially nice for a family and a home, because let’s face it—what family doesn’t have problems and what home doesn’t need fixing? With or without the proper tools, he somehow manages to do what needs to be done. He’s always there; I can always count on him. And this is a nice thing, especially in a world that is so unreliable, chaotic, and scary. With my firefighter, I feel safe and secure.
荣誉，勇气和力量 - 这是成为英雄所需要的，这就是成功婚姻所需要的。当您与消防员一起生活时，这些品质总是存在。多么酷啊？
You Get to Have Lots of Time Together.没错，您必须花费很长的时间分开，例如24小时和48小时的轮班，但是您需要花费很长的时间together也。有时候只有一天的休息时间，我们将有整整一周的时间！这对于我们的关系和孩子来说真是太棒了。
消防员时间表允许爸爸在教室里进行实地考察，并参加课外活动。这也意味着Hubby可以在工作时间内帮助进行家庭维修和大型项目。而且他经常在周中的约会之夜和其他浪漫的浪漫之夜免费。哇！
The 24-hour shift means less commuting, which is especially nice for big-city dwellers with horrific traffic issues. Less commuting means less soul-stealing, wasted time on the road and more time at home. And because of less commuting, you can live farther out from the city, which can be very, very nice (i.e., a peaceful lake existence).
大多数人必须努力挣扎并耐心地等待那些偶尔的“三天周末”，但消防员一直在漫长的周末。是的，他们在轮班期间牺牲了 - 但是他们为此获得了重大的好处。他们累了回家，但是他们回家了，他们准备回家，准备和您在一起。
我是一名消防员的配偶，为此感到自豪。他的英雄主义给我的世界带来了意义，兴奋和力量，使我敬畏。他在各个方面都是我的冠军，但每天他都在所有其他方面都在寻找我他的灵感，他的力量，他的hero;多么酷啊？
