Would you still consider marriage after a past bad marriage?

Question

Or would you just consider living together like married couples in love and just go on with the relationship as far as you could go without getting married?

Answer 1

I divorced...My new wife insisted on re-marrying (she was divorced also)....on account of her family would not accept us living together. In my mind, it did not change how committed I was to her...and it still has not even after the fact. I re-married to make her happy...Its all about balance...Take Care

Answer 2

I'm divorced ( 7 years) and have no desire to remarry any time soon.  My ex and I have children together and I'd rather avoid the nightmare that often comes when families are blended.  I've chosen to be there for my daughters for now.  I might consider remarrying later, but for now it's off the table.  I definitely wouldn't live with someone.

Answer 3

Thats married again whether you have paperwork to prove it or not.  

Answer 4

Been divorced 12 years. No marriage for me.

Answer 5

I still believe in marriage.  No matter what anyone says, living together is just not the same.  Besides why should a person let a bad past marriage affect their future and any future relationships.  To do so is to continue to give that past marriage power over your life.

Answer 6

divorced 10 years...no next marriage in sight..I doubt it.

Answer 7

I would consider marriage after a past bad marriage as long as he doesn't have the qualities that your past husband had. Not every man is alike and what your last partner did don't punish your future partner for. Seek counseling for yourself and focus on the future your soon to be husband.

Answer 8

NO!!!!!!! As it stands now, I'm still married but not for long. I don't ever see myself getting married or even living with another man. That may change some time down the road but it's not even a possibility until all 3 of my children are out of college. I will date but no further! However, if I ever decide to be with another I would not just live with them. It would have to be all or nothing. But I can't even imagine that right now. Actually, I may live with someone but I would NEVER sell my home (and I would make sure he had his own home as well!).

Answer 9

im acually scrared cause i was almost married twice in the past adn the women used me and cheated on me. the kids used me as well. so no im skeptical and not sure. but i know one thing i have a big f--king heart that i know someone will appreciate

Answer 10

I would consider marriage even after the terrible bad relationships I have been in, providing the person was right for me.  However we would live together for years before this happened.  I am very comfortable in relationships where we don't speak of marriage period.  I have never been legally married.  I think people tend to believe once they are married, they have that person now and they will stay around longer, be better, etc.  Dangerous assumptions.

Answer 11

Well I'm already married and do not believe in divorce so I do not think I will have to worry about this.  If however this was to happen yes I would do it again marriage is great living together is just that your basically roomates with benefits too me that is not a relationship.  Plus I'm also christian.

Answer 12

I think the best part of being alive is taking risks.

Emotions are a great land to do that.

You can start by living together, by sharing smiles and conflicts, by being bigger than problems.

After a while, to get married (again) would be something not only wished or possible, it will be a shared desire.

Good luck

Answer 13

It's actually a fact that second marriages are more successful.

I suppose because you've learned so much from the first and have just grown as a person and know what you want.

Answer 14

My first marriage was TERRIBLE. So when I met Mr. Right I was kinda scared about rushing into marriage again. My now husband and I lived together for about 3 years before actually getting married. We have now been married for almost 4 years and it's AWESOME!!

Answer 15

I lived with.... I was happy, she was happy, we broke up

I lived with and then married..... my ex wife (the divorce took longer than the marriage).

But then I meet my current wife. I was in love at second sight! (can't say first sight, because it was lust at first sight!) 16 yrs later and we are still in love and still in lust for that matter!

So, I say follow your heart but use your brain to see the outcome before you make your decision!

Be Safe

Be Sure

Be Happy
