Maybe it's not so much of controlling behavior as it is fear or a need to fill in the emptiness.

That's is another problem with us as humans and not just men. Your mate will be gone for extended periods and around the opposite sex. How does one cope with that unless both of your careers parallel causing the both of you to do the same. I think, and I could be wrong, this may be a part of why some military marriages either succeed or fail based on who gets left behind and how they cope with it.
