Her parents divorced and both remarried. Her Mother was married until her husband passed away and her Father is still married. My parents divorced. My Father married again for all the wrong reasons and divorced within a few months. My Mother is still married but has ALWAYS been very unhappy with her decision. My ex was married before me and divorced him. We met a few years later and married. She dumped my ass and married another guy within 6 months so this is her 3rd marriage. I wont get married again, EVER!

I guess technically I am an stbx -- my parents are married 53 years now. Always happy? Doubt that! Glad to be together at this point? I think they are!

His parents are still married.

My stbx's parents divorced when he was 2 or 3 because his mother "turned gay" (not my words). His father remarried and passed away young.
My stbx mil is as married as one can get in this state.

My family. My parents were going on 40 years of marriage when he passed away.
There are 4 kids in my family. After my divorce is final, 3 out of 4 of us divorced. Neither of my divorced sibling has, nor do I believe they will every re-marry. Nor will I.

Mizz

My parents are divorced never remarried. Ex'x parents divorced his mom remarried and her second husband killed himself when he got caught having sex will a minor that worked at their resturant

The rest of the gang

1st brother divorced his ex cheated on him and remarried said he married and ugly fat chick the second time so nobody else would want her.

2nd sister been married over 30 years he works a lot out of town and she sleeps around with anybody she can and he knows it.

3rd sister divorced remarried to a guy that cheats on her but she does nothing about it.

Damn I sound like a bad episode os Jerry Springer.

Both my out-laws and my parents have been married 39 and 37 years respectively...

My ex's parents were divorced when she was young. Her Dad is shacked up with the OW. Her Mom is widowed and about to be remarried. Her sister got married at 16 and hates her husband. All take meds.
Dang, maybe I should have know! lol

On the stbx's side - 8 divorces among her 3 sisters and mom.

My immediate family - i'm the 1st divorce. Parents have been married for 53 years.

Now if i can only get the stbx to stop dragging the agony on and draining me of every $ while she doesn't work, lives in my house with my 2 boys and now her boyfriend moved in.

She's white trash - why didn't i see that 23 years ago when i said "I do"?

Stbx comes from a VERY stabile family, parents stick together until detath do them part and actually seemed happier than ever before when I met them last 8 weeks ago. Stbx used to have so strong opinions about these things, part of why I cant understand whats going on.
My parents divorced when I was young and both stayed un-married until they passed away 20+ years later, although my mother had a long-term relation during the last 10 of those years.

POST NOTE

I suspect HE stuck it out so long because HIS dad has been married 4 times... trying to break a cycle I suspect.

My STBX's parents were never married, her mother is going on her sixth divorce

My ex's dad has been married and divorces 6 or 7 times, her mom 5 times. Of her 10 half sibsal but 2 that have married have been dovorced.

My parents would have had their 60th aniversery 3 months after Dad died. There was no divorce in our family history until my generation. Of the 6 of us all of us have maried ad all but one have been through at least one divorce.

My STBX's parents have been married for almost 50 yrs. They married young & they actually made it. What they are lacking is parenting skills since they didn't teach any of their children to be responsible adults who have morals & values. They are teaching the grandchildren to be the same way too. I guess that their motto is "do whatever you want to do because there are no consequences & we'll bail you out."

6 or 7... oush. I am sensing a pattern. Add me.

My stbx's mother lived with whoever would put a roof over her head and beat her at the time. He never met his father. He has some terrible stories of his moms B/F's. they were all terrible people. She finally married his now stepdad, a couple years after our wedding. She has been with him for a while and he is a good guy.

My parents have been married for 39 yrs. I dont think they really are happy but they will never separate.
