HUMMM mine lasted 11 so guess I had made it past the 80% that did not.

But for now just looking for someone that we see eye to eye on and can
enjoy each other company if it comes to getting married again it does
but not a must for a relantionship right now.

Besides a marriage is a two way street takes 100% efford from both
partys to make it work and only one to screw it up. So a marriage can
work if both are willing to put there all into it completely. Means they
must have honesty and trust in each other or it will never work.

13 years, i made it past the 80% mark before my divorce..
i don't know if that is a good thing or not.. lol@me

but as Txs mentioned very wisely, it does take two and 100% dedication
in order for it to work as well as incredible
communication..... takes two to make it and two to break it..
Honesty........ Dedication .... communication....
just some of my thoughts....

what contributed to your divorce? Arent u only supposed to get divorced
for the "bigger" reasons? I know a lot of people that got divorced over
petty reasons and called it inconsolorable differences.

I do not know about all states and the laws, in each one, but here in
TX. if one of the persons in a marriage wants to get a divorce the other
person is powerless to stop the divorce. I was married for 10 yrs. and
he died...the second time I was married for 13 yrs....I decided to
divorce him because I could not stand the abuse any more and it seemed
when he tried to drown my son and me, that was the last straw...the 3rd
time was with a guy I met on the internet...we were married Cherokee
style and divorced the same way since there is no common law marriage up
in the state where we were, we did not have to fool around with all the
laws and such...BEST thing I ever did was NOT marrying him legally!
