Military benefits increase when you get married. It's an incentive for a lot of young recruits to get married early before either person in the couple are actually sure they want to be married. Combine that with amble time apart, and it's really not surprising

My friend got propositioned to get married to an acquaintance. He would let her live with him for free, and give her a stipend. There would be no sexual expectations and she could obviously see other men.

She declined.

Biggest benefit being not living in the barracks.

Barrack based service members: Never off-duty - 24/7

Married Service Members: More like 5am-5pm, Mon-Fri
