| Society has us thinking that it is a sign of failure for anyone to marry/divorce repeatedly, but I believe that it shows these people like committment and the marriage institution. I think because of that, they marry too quickly and find out after the fact that they arent as compatible as they first thought. Why dont we look down on singles who have multiple relationships that dont result in marriage and divorce. Its ok to have a dozen failed relationships..why is that?

| Lady virtue, I agree with you and I think that is very perceptive. You seem to bring a ray of sunshine with your insight.
Why don't we ask... What about all these singles that are hitting their 40's and above never having been married? Hmmm? Many of them that I have met tend to not even be in serious realtionships much of the time. Is that a failure to get along? Maybe a failure to develop those give and take skills that get a couple through everyday with such ease that it seems to be second nature. A failure to develop an ability to differentiate between the serious issues and not so serious? Many of these perpetually single people I have met when you really get to know them seem a little stunted and immature in those departments.
But that's just my humble opinion.
Cause Ima humble kinda guy.

| Society has evolved to socialy exept pre-marital intercourse and dating, so people are free to do what they want and are not scorned by divorce. Therefore marage has become outdated in a sene because people get married either to yong or for the wrong reasons. There are many reasons for that but its a purely logaical state of social developement,were eventualy marage will probly be less comon.

| Because we believe people we shouldn't, we think forever is forever and they think it's until they change their minds. And when youre all used up, they go to the next sucker.

| I've been married only once, not sure if , and when i will again. I have friends that have been married 4 to 5 times, and I just don't get it.
i feel people think its a game, and when all the rules are used up, on to the next player.
Can you all here honestly say that when you go out , you have only looked at the peorson your with? Your so in love with that special person that you have not stopped to get a better look?
Its way to easy to see something else that may be better coming our way then to be happy with the one we are with. Like the song saids love the one your with, When I was with HIM.
I am a very nice looking lady, but as we would dine, or go to a show, he would be more aware of other ladies, then me. At first I didn't pay to much attention to him, but it got even worse. I kept in shape, ate well, ran, jogged, and swam, to stay in shape. But it didn't do any good, he still looked. And yes I am sure many here will say, Oh he was just looking, Well that looking lead to him having that first affair.
And to a lady that was heavier that me, do I dislike her, NO, I do not, he lied to her about me, and She and I are friends to this day.
And I feel , why do we need to be with all these men/women, what are we really looking for?
Is it just sex, then say so? I sit for many hours reading topics on here, and to me well, ITS all about sex, no love , no happiness. There are some that ask for this, but most topics are about nasty things, I have a right to say this, its the TRUTH, And thats why so many marry , and remarry , they are looking for that one sexual encounter that will only last as long as it does, until that person, LOOKS and see someone else that may be better.
To them I say stay away from me, I'll find you when I am ready, and It will not be just for sex. JMO... LMT4

| I have been married 3 times and I am only 41. The first time, I was 19, and had our first child when I was 20. We were together for 8 years. The second one, I married when I was 28 (for 3 years). And the third, I married when I was 38..were together for almost 6 years, but only married for just almost 3.
I don't think I jumped in to hastily. I believe in marriage and standing before God and professing your love and commitment to another. Just because I believe, doesn't necessarily mean that the significant other did.
I still refuse to be shacked up for the rest of my life. My dream has always been to be married and grow old with the man of my dreams. If it takes #4, #5, well so be it.
Okay, maybe not. I am thinking one more shot, after that...I may just turn into one of those women who just look for FWB.

| One person says up to 5 times... Another says more than twice... So what 5 times? So what twice. LMAO! Why twice? why not... Once? I know why not none? The logic stated was "poor judgment" if its more than twice. Well isn't once poor judgment by that standard? Where do these arbitrary numbers come from? The air I suspect.
There's a little more too it all than raw number of times. Ok... A LOT more to it.
