We both lost our fathers within 1 year of each other and neither mother has dated much less looked for another companion.
His one brother was married and divorced twice. His youngest brother was divorced and has remarried. His oldest brother and life partner have split up.
As for me - 2 married sisters - 1 for 20 yrs, the other 10, the oldest is a recent widow after 6 yrs of marriage.
WE were together for 26.5 years, 24 of marriage.
His Dad is on wife #4. Yes, for all of you that complain about the mother in law.. I had 3. (I never knew #2..it was like 2 months of marriage)
No one in my family until this generation has gotten divorce. Hindus don't do divorce. The bride will throw herself on the funeral pyre to show her devotion to the marriage.
You stick with your spouse forever.
Some other Asian cultures. you don't divorce.. you burn the bride if you are unhappy.. sorry.. had to let that slip out.
My children are young, and seem that getting divorced is kinda normal. Their Dad has said he would like to get married again, this was before the our divorce was finalized.. lol
Anyhow.. the girls are taking bets on how many times their dad will get married, cos Grandpa gets married a lot and Dad is like Grandpa...sheeeeeeesh.
Now my family; it would be easier to count the ones still married. Still I know the reason for this divorce has nothing to do with the divorce rate in my family.
PS anyone know how to edit a post?
