Married twice and divorced twice. Does anyone else feel embarrassed and a bit ashamed about being twice divorced? I don't like telling people and struggle with it a lot. I feel judged sometimes and I hear negative comments about men who are divorced.

@whatth

Nope! I don't. First marriage simply didn't work out and second one was a disaster. He was abusive/controlling in every way!

There won't be a third. That is for sure.

whatth · 07/07/2022 06:08

@givemeastiffone I had similar experiences too. I also will never marry again!

Married at 22, divorced at 27 - DV and coercion Biscuit

Married at 29 divorced at 44 - he cheated with work colleague TWICEBlush

Married at 47 and been married now for 10 years, third marriage was a massive leap of faith - but best yet!! 😬😬😬

Married at 20, divorced at 27 two children. Married again at 33 divorced at 48 no children from that marriage.

Through personal experience I now have realised through a great deal of deep thought that marriage is simply not for me. I really do not need a piece of paper issued to me by a council official that states I am in the eyes of the law tethered to another. I find relationships a very very high risk endeavour. You could be with someone for years and think you know and trust them, then out of the blue a unforseen incident arises and their reaction blows you away. You are left in shock and suddenly you see them in a very revealing light. It's that kind of experience that is the beginning of the end.

Married at 29, he cheated when I was 39 we split, he dragged his heals so I was 45 before we actually divorced. 1 DC
Married at 39 to a widower ( married at 18, widowed at 46), still married. No DC, he is an excellent stepdad.

MrsMitford3 · 07/07/2022 07:06

Married three times one child. All turned out to be less than satisfactory and sex/porn mad. Not having another relationship ever.

Wallywobbles · 07/07/2022 07:12

Remarried at 45.

Married at 24, divorced at 38. Married again 40, divorced at 42. I won’t be bothering again either, haven’t even dated since and I’m now 56. 1st husband was a cheater, 2nd was an abusive psychopath.

PennineWayinSlingbacks · 07/07/2022 07:54

Married at 22, 3 DC's, divorced him at 42. Remarried at 44, one more DC. He's on his 4th marriage (no previous DC's, short marriages every time and he ended them all) but its getting towards 20 years now so he's got whatever it was out of his system!
