Yes, that is always a MAJOR issue.  My wife new I was in pattern when she married me.  She has NO PROBLEM with it at all.  In fact, she has been able to go to places with me she probably would have not been able to go otherwise.  

A model-friendly wife is a godsend!

  Guys, yes Guys!  cuz lets face this is a guy thing except for a few ladys through the years that have actually
    flown at a contest, to get to the point I have been reading these thoughts on this thread about different aircraft and distance to contests  and  a million other reasons that pattern does not have the massive numbers that some think it should have, this is my opinion but a big part of being able to compete and spend the money etc. all comes down to one big thing, your wife or girlfriend putting up with not seeing you for hours, days, weeks, if your build your own, months, while we go about our practice, trimming, buying, buying and then
  buying some more stuff, the biggest hurtle I have witnessed in getting sport flyers into pattern is their better
  half. Eric and I have seperately and collectively thanked God for the women that we have and I think this has
  to be the case with anyone who is active in pattern, they say behind any good man is a good woman, I will add
  behind any good score there has to be a darn good woman if not there when it happens in the wings(no pun int), everybody lets hear it for the real reason you are able to fly pattern. FWIW.
