To: null and void
Where were you when I need you?????

Sorry. I guess I was asleep at the switch that time. :^)

This is one of those things that has always confused me. The goal of marriage is to spend the rest of your life with someone yet so many people accept a divorced person (even mulitply divorced people) as a suitable mate with no deep research into their character.

It seems to me that if someone's been divorced once that maybe they just picked a loser for their spouse. After two or more failed marriages the only thing common is the divorced person. Maybe they are the problem.

That's why I say that you have to look close and hard at a divorced person and much harder at a multiply divorced person before making a commitment to them. The odds for that second (or third or seventh etc) divorce are just too great.

Another thing that confuses me is a woman (or man) who will run around with a married person and then expect that person to remain faithful once they get married to each other. If he ran around with you he'll run around on you. To me this is self-evident but so many can't see it.

I briefly dated a married woman when I was young and [more] foolish. She neglected to tell me she was married. To a Marine Corps Drill Instructor.

I always asked first after that...

Of course the woman is mentioned first and the man is in parentheses.

I myself would never consider dating someone while they were married and to my knowlege never have.
