[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is interesting to me because the first and only (to date) divorce in my social circle happened to the most picture-perfect couple. They are both fantastic looking, great jobs, athletic, lots of cash, churchgoing, you name it. They also each have the least messy, or depending on how you look at it, adventurous pasts - zero experimentation with drugs, no sleeping around or heavy drinking in college. Marriage failed when the husband decided that his highly paid STEM career wasn't "perfect" enough for him and was going to med school, and nothing less than an Ivy would do. Oh, and kids were off the table until he finished residency, which put wife in her late 30s at the earliest. The wife was unwilling to sacrifice finances and her own career to move out of state AND forego TTC. Wife is remarried with kids; I'm no longer in touch with husband but I heard he did go to Harvard med. I also have heard over the years that husband plays the victim, big time. Can't believe wife left him heartbroken, totally blindsided, etc.[/quote]

He had a dream and he went for it. Sounds like it worked out fairly well for him. If kids were her dream, then they both should be happy.[/quote]
