[quote=Anonymous]No, but I've been a guest at the wedding of two separate couples who I was certain wouldn't work out.

First couple was mismatched in every way.  However, they dated for so long, and already owned a house and all that jazz.  There was a lot of inertia, including robust and highly integrated social lives that prevented them from breaking up.  They were the couple that hosted every holiday party, and so on.  They should have just bit the bullet and split, but it would have been a huge to-do.  Breaking up is more complicated than it should be when you've been playing house for years.  No kids.  They didn't make it two years before they began the process of a nasty and needlessly dramatic divorce.  Good grief.

Second couple is still married, but utterly miserable.  They're sleeping in separate rooms and she seems to hate him.  The guy was a rebound relationship for my friend.  She got pregnant.  He makes enough to let her stay at home with the baby, so it works...for now.  I'd be shocked if they make it 5-10 years.[/quote]
