[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She: divorced emotionally and verbally abusive alcoholic who cheated. Married 20 years.
He: cheated and was thrown out by angry wife when caught. Marriage had been dead for 12 years before that but didn't want to break up family. Married 25 years.

What signs or red flags should each look out for in the other? Both are kind-hearted people with kids about the same age, but their baggage could fill the Titanic.[/quote]

Don't date, be happy with your kids, grand kids someday, friends, hobbies. Work on yourself and move on.  Forget the ex, stop dwelling or talking to the abusive ex. That's the only way you'll be free.

Certainly don't try to snare someone else into your mess especially if you refuse to unload all that baggage. [/quote]

Terrible advice to tell someone not to date ever again. So every woman who has ever been married to a bad man should never date again?

Ridiculous and cruel advice. And I'm not sure if you understand how many women are trapped in these sorts of marriages right here in NW DC.

Agree with all the posters that say that therapy is essential first. Never to marry someone who has cheated in the past (if you can really figure out information out), and make sure you date for a long time before marriage and make sure you're compatible.

I hope the woman in this scenario finds happiness.
