No way!!! Statistically they do not have good odds-- 73% of third marriages fail. Doomed to fail.
I have a relative that has been married and divorced 4 times. IMO this person has many narcissistic tendencies and will never have a romantic relationship that lasts. This person is in love with the euphoric feeling they get from "new" love, not actually doing the nitty gritty of making a relationship really work. This person is also very self-centered.
My relative is also very charming, attractive and successful in their career. However, is a hot mess emotionally once you see through the facade.
Is everyone aware that this is a 5 year old thread, and the only reason it keeps going "back on the market", so to speak, is because the original poster logs in with different brand new accounts to resurrect it?
I'll spare you the leg work, because I looked: every single time that this thread has been revived after a gap (usually 3 months to a year), it has been by a new user with 1 or 2 posts. Without fail. And no one has yet pointed out that, gee, maybe it's our old friend I'm Retired Now, the OP. The OP is notorious for logging in with fresh new names to either post new controversial threads or revive his old ones.
It's all kind of harmless (entertaining, even), and there's nothing wrong, per se, with continuing the discussion every time it's revived - but I just want you guys to be aware of it.
For love! Some of us folks still believe in that, you know?
I'd not date someone married 4 times though.
Love does not equal marriage. It's a good answer and probably the only one for a person married so many times.
I got married because I had to but don't believe in the paper and hate that I had to. Then again I'm atheist and follow a lot of Buddhist ideals. Still happily married years later but always think of how I wish I could divorce and just live with my hubby without the marriage paper. Neither of us wanted a religious or state sanctified life together.
I say maybe throw the idea of a private commitment ceremony without the paper and go on from there. It's what we had really wanted to do and we still love each other.
Something I learned after a 19 year marriage, 3 month marriage and now 13 years in. Is that even though I am the most easy going person there is , ..there is something wrong with my picker. It's taken alot of work to realize I have more value than a. Verbal or physical punching bag for someone else.
I guess my point is you need to take a long time and really get to know someone, before making a leap.
I did date a gal who had been divorced 4 or 5 times, but, the operative word is "date", marriage was not on the agenda, at least not for me. I didn't keep that a secret from her either, but sometimes people "hear what they want to hear, and disregard the rest" - so I can't say what she was thinking.
A very pretty waitress, who had I think 4 or 5 daughters, pretty much one daughter with each husband, they all looked just like her, like a set of Russian matroshka dolls.
