They say 50% will end in divorce.

If you were married for any amount of time and got divorced, why in the hell would you ever marry again... I'm on year 15 with my bride and I can say for **** sure that after watching several buddies "Change Brides like a Woman Changes Clothes", I would never get re-married if we split the sheets! It aint worth it....

Brother, I said the same exact thing after my first marriage. Been with #2 for 11 years now! LOL!

I was married 34 years the first time and had a great marriage. 11 months as a widower and I decided to start dating. We fell in love on the first date. She was a widow after 32 years of marriage. We both believe in "till death do us part" and approached our marriage totally committed. We've only been married a little over 4 months but it has been totally awesome. God has definitely blessed us.

Three times for me, just divorced (September) after almost 25 years and four children together. I had one son from my first marriage and she had two children, son and daughter. We had one son together that passed away at the age of 7 back in 2002. This divorced was a killer and she destroyed my heart when she left. She was my world. It has been a tough road for me, but I am slowing getting back to my old self.

First marriage: 2 years
Second marriage: 2 years

I don't think I can marry again.....

Good luck to everyone.

Congrats, that is great.

I was married to my 1st wife for almost 10 years, 2 of those might have been good years

Now I'm on day 5 of my 2nd marriage

Must be a time or length thing. First one I was young and dumb and it only lasted 1.5 years. it felt more like a breakup than a divorce because we had nothing as poor college kids. The second time around, I found the right one. However, I told her if something happens to us, there will be no more Mrs. Smarts.......just labs and live ins...

I'm batting .500 (if marriage were baseball, I'd be in the hall of fame).
Married 8 years the first time to a crazy person. I got out alive 14 years ago with my clothes, a vehicle, and my two small children. I have been extremely blessed to be married to the love of my life for 10 years. Never expected to be blindsided by divorce, it was brutal. But, I'm so thankful for the life I have now with my family. God has truly blessed us.

Exactly the way a God plans it, Humper. Congrats to you and your bride! As long as both husband and wife uphold that commitment, there is no failure. Simple as that. Unfortunately we're in a society where far less than 50% of married individuals believe in true commitment.

Even relationships not made to the alter yet have issues with commitment too.

Marriage ain't all it's cracked up to be

Poor guy.

[junkmanhunter]

Going on 33 years with my only one. I can't comprehend the whole concept of divorce. We made a commitment and working everyday to make it succeed.

This right here. .

I'm going on 32 this yr. I say everyday, I am the luckiest man alive. Believe me, as Bisch said I have wanted to strangle her a few times, and have told her if I was the kind of guy who hit women, she would have a black eye. Through it all, life couldn't be much better.

Remember, it's a 2 way street. It takes some compromising and work everyday.

[MilMan]

We are coming up on 7. Its had it's ups and downs especially with us both being military. But as a lot of stated it's a 2 way street. There has got to be give and take in the relationship. They say opposites attract and we are exactly opposite one another. But, it's worked out this far and if in the end it would fail to continue to work I would never do it over. Great comments and insight from yall, thanks.

Isn't there a limit on how many times you can marry?

[Texas8point]

marriage is a gamble...... a huge risk and reward gamble !
