For the statistically minded among us:

50% of first marriages end in divorce
65% of second marriages end in divorce
75% of third marriages end in divorce

Why? Because the vast majority of those second and third marriages which end in divorce begin less than 5 years after the previous marriage ends.

I wouldn't take those odds.

I'm sorry. I know how it feels when your ex marries someone else. I'll leave it with "not good" ... sending you hugs. I hope that in no time at all you will realize how lucky you are to be free of that mess.

A box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand,
That this too, was a gift."
