I'm not worried about anything in specific. There was just a really good article I read here a while back in which a study was done of the people who tended to get divorced. I recall it finding that there was a correlation between a person's chances of getting a divorce and the number of relationships they had prior to the marriage. The idea being that all those previous relationships taught those people that, when the going gets tough, they should quit the relationship and move on, and that it's that attitude which later leads to their divorce.

I just thought it was a great article, and I know someone who might be interested in reading it, so I thought I'd ask to see if anyone remembers the article in question.

That’s good.
I believe the correlation reflects a tendency to base the relationship upon sex before friendship.... hence multiple partners... multiple failures.

Once the guy gets what he wants physically before the commitment, the desire for commitment is diminished.
Gals tend to think that giving the guy what he wants will solidify the commitment... when it works just the opposite.

I think that guys who are looking for something that will last a lifetime need to envision their prospect old, fat, and ugly... and if they still want to marry them, then by all means pop the question.

Gals should make sure her man has his priorities straight...
FRIENDS FIRST.
