[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope. I would never marry someone who has been divorced before. It just doesn't work like that for me. I might be one of the few people left, that believe in this, but for me marriage is til death do us part. Divorce is not an option for me. And if it happens, then that's it.[/quote]

I'm the PP above your post, and I have to say, I'm just curious about your perspective. Not trying to talk you out of it - you may be in the minority as you say, but there are people who feel the way you do, and likely one of them will be a good fit for you. I'm just curious where your perspective came from.

I get where you say divorce isn't an option - as mentioned in my post, I've never married, and could have probably been a couple times - I'm in my 30s. I take marriage seriously. But in this day and age, you (obviously, because of the next sentence in your post) realize that it does not take two to divorce. Someone can leave you, and there's really nothing you can do about it.

So, in that case, if your spouse left you, you would just be alone forever? Because you considered the marriage failing as a flaw of yours? Even if they chose to leave/cheated/abused you, etc? Or, knowing yourself, do you just love so deeply that you know you'd never be able to get to a place where you'd want a relationship again, if a marriage failed? Or is it that you'd have relationships, but just never actually marry? [/quote]

I am talking from my current perspective. I can't say how I will feel in 20 years. But today, this is how I feel:

If my husband would ever leave me (or I end up leaving him if he cheats or is abusive), I don't think I would want to marry again. Just because marriage is a one off thing for me. I could maybe find a new partner after a while. I certainly wouldn't go out looking for one though, I never did that - not with my husband either. We just found each other without actually searching. One doesn't need to be married to be together, so I probably wouldn't go down that route again.[/quote]
