My mother called me the other night and informed me that her friend/ex-roommate, B.B., is getting divorced from her most recent husband. Yes, B.B. married this compulsively-lying ghetto redneck, and surprise surprise, he turned out to be a bad husband. Damn, if them two crazy kids couldn’t make it, there’s no hope for any of us.
Just finished reading your other thread. Wow. Was his fake background ever revealed?
Oh, yeah, and SEVENTH marriage? Let’s hope that she doesn’t think that eight is enough.
I just finished that thread as well. I think there was a similar one in the past six months of another guy lying about his military record.
Reading the thread title, I thought to myself, “What kind of idiot would marry someone with six divorces under their belt?”. Then I read the thread you linked to. Kind of answered my question.
just read the other thread. Oh wow.
Surely there are juicy stories to be told…?
My aunt was divorced six times or so, and it had to all be within 15 years. Quite the drama queen, she eventually did find someone to stick with.
Well at least she didn’t marry another woman. Rejoice! Marriage retains it’s solemn value!
[Aahz] I’d never refuse eighths! [/A]
Wow, she must be awfully good at it by now!
Some people are in love with the idea of being in love. When they find out it isn’t like the story books, and is actually real work, they decide to move on.
I have to say that one divorce probably wouldn’t frighten me in a woman. Two, well, maybe it wouldn’t bother me. But 3 or more would be a telling sign - at least for me.
Thank God Gays are not allowed to marry !
My Mom married and divorced four times, and just moved in with a guy who lied to her about his dying grandmother to spend time with another woman. Having observed her over the course of my lifetime, the only obvious thing is that there’s something broken in these people’s brains when it comes to relationships. She is fundamentally incapable of being alone. She can’t stand it.
I’ve only ever had three relationships – the first, when I was 17-18, was a compulsive liar and an idiot (honestly, one of the dumbest people I’ve ever met.) It took me three months to figure out he was a moron, and I never made the same mistake twice.
It’s very simple. Being in a relationship does not equate eternal happiness. Better alone and sane than with a man who is a jackass. Raise your standards, people!
Yup. So glad the solemnity of the marriage between two practicing heterosexuals is shown here, undiluted by sharing it with homosexuals.
If she is not in double digits, she is just an amature.
She’s just looking for someone named Henry.
People also seem to forget that you can have a relationship without being married. More shacking up, I say!
How do you tell someone they’re special with a straight face when they are they 7th person you’ve been married to? I’ve always wondered that about people who have been in 3+ marriages.
The eighth time’s the charm?
OK. When did you start dating my ex-wife?
My brother was married four times. He was a late bloomer, and I think he felt that if you slept with somebody, you should offer to marry them. Old school, sorta.
My dad was married seven times. I don’t know why those marriages failed. I do know that he was still looking around when he was in his 80’s.
