If you have divorced and remarried, maybe multiple times, and are now happily married, would you go through all of it again?
If you met your current spouse back before you got married the first time, would you have recognized how wonderful they are for you or do you think that you had to go through the unhappy times in order to grow to where you are now?
Did you have to live through the duds to get to a point where you could be happy, or were you just unlucky not to have met Mr/Mrs Right the first time around?

I know a lot of people for whom the 2nd and even the 3rd time were the charm.
It's not really about "luck", it's more about timing and who you are when you meet the one that is right for you
If my current spouse and I had met before he married the first time he would still be running screaming as fast as he could, I am not remotely close to any woman he has ever met or dealt with on any level. As for me I would not change a thing as far as my life goes, I have lived, learned, grown, matured, changed and even grown wiser as I have aged and experienced.
My wife is in her second marriage with me, and always has expressed how wonderfully happy she is. Her first husband was worse than not being Mr. Right, he used her for residency, then turned mean, abusive towards her (emotionally, not physically) and was cheating on her (She filed for divorce before even knowing this nugget, but found out when he moved his mistress into their house... pregnant... after she served him and moved out).

I'm not in this situation (I'm married, never divorced) but I absolutely believe you have to follow your life path to get where your going and that the "obstacles" along the way help shape and prepare for your destination.
Madea (Tyler Perry) had a great monologue about this. It was on youtube but it's been disabled, however if you read the 4th paragraph down on this link, it summarizes the scene. It's a message of faith, but if you don't believe and you can get beyond that, I think it's still valid.
