Young teachers are so altruistic and have so much pent-up inside. After a few years, they often move to something else.
So much has to do with what school you're in, the subjects you teach and the age of the students.

My wife was a teacher. Does that count?

Married to a teacher. It all depends on the admin for my wife.
First principle, hated her. Moved to a new school with a principle she loved and was as happy as can be. Principle left and new one sucked and she was miserable again.
The hated principle just left last week. For my sake, hope this new one works out.
Pay in Houston seems fair too. Especially if the wife sticks with it and we can collect that pension. We shall see.

Any of you ever dated a teacher before?

If you ever have aspirations of being the Mr. Mom type, by all means, go marry a teacher.

The whining has NOTHING to do with her job. It's HER.
If she were a rich model, movie star, an athlete, a business mogul, she would whine. Dump her and find a happier person.

I think that’s why Facebook exists for teachers to commiserate

My mom taught school and you woulda thought she was digging ditches while balancing the federal budget when the kids were at lunch and recess. She knows nothing of professional jobs and expectations.

I’m married to one. Yes, they get lots more time off that we in the regular workforce get. But they also get paid a lot less. And they have to deal with spoiled, rotten, bad, disrespect kids all day. You won’t hear me saying their jobs aren’t difficult. The problem is you have people out there teaching who half arse the job and give the rest of the ones who spend hours at night on the phone with parents, $1,000s of dollars on items for their classroom the state won’t pay for, and ones who really care for our children, a bad name.

I’m talking to one currently. She’s a stereotypical teacher in that she constantly complains and whines about everything.
I'd bet my life savings and 401K that the OP (cbree88) could not handle teaching at a public high school for 1 month. Matter of fact, you'd probably quit in less than a week.
I too married an educator with a Master's degree, who teaches severe and profound special education students in a rural poverty-stricken Parish. She loves the kids and will step up for their needs. Sadly, most of the parents only care about getting their childs monthly "government check". These same parents often times forget to administer their kids medication which makes it harder for the teachers to control the kids. One kid stands in the corner and jumps all day. One is non-verbal who ambulates with a wheel chair and has a colostomy bag, and one is a "runner". As soon as the class-room door opens, this kid takes off like Usain Bolt and he constantly has to be monitored. My wife rarely complains as she understands the difficulties knowing SHE chose this profession. She will put in another 3 years and retire at 50.

Never dated one, but I'm married to one. (she didn't get into teaching till after we got married 
)
Teaching is a difficult profession. Some get bitter due to letting the negatives overcome them, and some find ways to keep their passion fresh. So, what that really means is...the character of the person matters more. Someone who is inclined to negativity, who is willing to give in to the inertia of "good enough" and the subsequent dissatisfaction it provides, will be the same whether they're a teacher, a DMV clerk, or a doctor. Your relationship is with the person, not their profession.
That said, there are benefits of having a spouse who is a teacher when you have kids - no worries about after school care or holiday/ summer vacation care, and your kids can't get away with acting a fool in class because they'll get told on as fast as lightning.
I try to listen to the complaining, and find a way to ask questions even if it makes zero sense to me. Seems to help to let the emotional garbage out, then apply rational thought (via thinking about it in response to my question) to the issue.

Yes, teachers complain, but mostly because its the thing to do. Think esprit de corps.
I teach, I coach, I picked up a second job. My wife teaches and also has a second job.
We don't complain much about pay. I feel that I'm fairly well compensated, but there's this:
When we have a kid, due to insurance, my paycheck is going to decrease twenty percent. I'm not even going to clear 3k/month next year. I think that's a legit gripe, but instead I picked up a second job in additon to coaching.
Second gripe, no matter how good or bad I am at my job, I get the same pay. I try merely because its the right thing to do. There's no other incentive.
You might consider my post in order to gain a more plenary perspective regarding the profession.
