That's possible but on other side, OP 's sadness is understandable as she may never find such solid relationship again. [b]If everyone was coming out smarter for next time, second and third marriages would've a higher rate of success but its the opposite.[/b]

That being said, it is what it is. All you can do is support her. [/quote]

There is a difference between getting married and then divorced and dating someone long-term and not getting married.  People who have multiple marriages fail are not learning from each one and at some point are more likely to jump into marriage (obviously this doesn't apply to everyone but someone on a third marriage is statistically more likely to get divorced than someone on a first marriage).

The daughter dated and didn't marry someone that she was incompatible with.  She can certainly learn from that without being more likely to get divorced.   [/quote]
