[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a few “odd couple” friends who divorced, but some who are still together and have kids and seem happy. You never can tell. I had one friend who married THE BIGGEST JERK (IMO) I’ve ever met. I could tell some real stories about this guy. They were young when they met and young when they married. [b]He matured and turned out to be a pretty good husband and dad[/b]. Now it would surprise me if they did divorce. [/quote]

This times a million.  Some people are rough around the edges when they get married, but actually being married helps them grow.  My husband probably falls somewhat in this category.  I think when we got married, some people thought he was abrasive.  But years later, he brings me coffer every morning in bed -- every morning.  He does all of the grocery shopping.  He remembers the things I like and makes sure he gets the right flavor ice cream.  He's attentive in ways other people don't see.

People are complicated.  They grow and change over time.  It's hard to see and know a person through and through.

So far all of the divorces in my circle of friends have been couples people thought were nearly perfect, well matched, cute, etc.  What you see on the outside is just that -- the stuff on the outside.[/quote]
