My wife has come around to where she no longer asks if I'm going to carry or if I am carrying. I got to the point that I just carried and worried about what she would say later. We now have kids and I think that she understands that I do it for her and for them. I started with a little 38 in my pocket, then my full size 1911, then a little 380, now most days in my compact 1911. I have tried to get her to get her LTC, but so far she does not want it, so I don't push it.
I got my license 2 and a half years ago. My wife was supportive of my getting the license, but I didn't know how she would really like have me carry a gun on a regular basis, especially at the time with a 3 year old and a newborn baby in the house. I think that she was a little concerned about it at first but it didn't take long before she started to take comfort in the fact that I was almost always carrying a gun, especially when we were out of the house.
