[quote=Anonymous]This is interesting to me, because the fact that BOTH members of the relationship had been through long marriages, then divorce, signifies that they simply "did not want to go through this again".

Meaning, they really did it for themselves.  Which is fine, except if it is your first marriage, and you want it to work, but the other person refuses to give, its hopeless.

If it is the second or consecutive marriage, there is more interest in not going through a divorce again, knowing it is no fun - at best.  I have seen this with many friends.  Even if the second or consecutive marriage isn't half as good as the first marriage, families have been divided, stakes are higher, and the interest appears.

It is a damn shame that people could not see the forest for the trees, in the first marriage, that could have easily been much better than any other; it could have worked if the person had the wherewithal to make it work.  Why do they have to divorce to see the truth?

I am not saying this is the case in every instance, but many I have seen.  Make sense? [/quote]
