Thank you for posting this, ppenton. Its difficult to read, as I am about to get married for the second time (his second as well) and that puts us in the 90% chance of failure category. Sigh. But its still good to know, good to have eyes wide open, and good to try anyway, even if we are doomed.

As with any bride, I can't imagine ever being divorced from him and I will not proceed with caution. I will go forward with wild abandon and will expect success!

Thanks again, even though it was hard.

This is the first time I've seen it at 90%; elsewhere I have seen it is 60%.

Regardless, enjoy and relish in it and use the tools you have acquired. I bet not too many in that study had the DB going for them.

Congratulations!

DQ, congratulations and a great attitude to go along with all the DBing you have acquired!!

I can relate to the money thing in that article. I'm about 75% sure that if I had a solid job with benefits lined up for the fall, she wouldn't have left me.
