[quote=Anonymous]There is no default rule you can follow that will let you end up with a good husband. You have to keep your eyes open and ask questions about the particular man.

Technically, my brother was raised in a two parent home. Our parents were married for almost 30 years and are both successful white collar professionals. My brother is going to make an absolutely terrible husband, however, and is an atrocious boyfriend. Why? Well, the fact that both of my parents have serious mental illnesses and were in a mutually physically, emotionally, and financially abusive marriage might have to with it. My brother learned how to be an aggressive, unfaithful asshole from my father. He learned how to be suspicious and resentful of women from my mother, who is bitter towards any woman who has anything good that she wants.

I have seen many of his girlfriends latch onto him because they see a rich family with parents who appear to be classy and educated, and they think that my brother must be a real catch. In reality, if they keep their eyes open, there are many warning signs that this is not the family to marry into and that my brother is extremely emotionally disturbed.
