No, my parents were divorced. My sister has been happily married for 7 yrs, I've been happily married for 3. You sometimes learn from others mistakes, or at least we did.

Not necessairly. Better than half of all marriages fail in the US. But, part of that reason is that we all live longer, and marry once, maybe twice. Your great grandparents averaged about 50. You can plan to live to be somewhere in your 8o's certainly enough time to be married twice. 'Sides, divorce isn't necessarily a bad thing. Over the course of a lifetime people change, and the guy you married at 27 might not be the guy you are married to at 50, nor maybe will you be. And, things wear out -- cars, tired, houses, carpets, and yes, marriages, hon....

No, you don't have to! My parents are divorced and my sister has been married for long years. It doesn't matter if your parents are divorced, it depends on the person you choose to marry. You are the one making the decision, not them.

Sometimes children learn from their parents mistakes and vows to do better. I would not put to much stock in anyone saying "yes you will ". It will be what you put into it. Sometimes people who marry young don't even know who they are themselves and then marry someone the know nothing about. While it may be good for awhile, we tend to grow up and discover who we are. So, if you make it a point of really getting to know your man, that is a big part of the success of a marriage. Good luck

You parents are divorcees, but that does not mean you have to follow their footstep. You can use their failures as a stepping stone to help yourself in establishing better marriage and family life for your future.

Divorce is always painful and every case has its own reason and cause that leads to marital failure. From your parents' failures, I believe there are much for you to discern and learn, so that you can prevent those damaging and destructive things from your entering your future marriage.

I believe, through your parents experiences, you wil be more careful in choosing life partner, and be able to build a better marriage and family life with your spouse.

No. You make your own choices - your parents made theirs. Choose to marry the right person, and choose to get married for the right reasons. Choose a loving relationship, and choose to compromise with your spouse. Choose to love your spouise every day, even when they do something you don't particularly agree with. Choose to talk to your spouse openly and in a loving way. Choose not be abusive. Choose to care. Bottom line: YOU choose lifelong marriage, YOU choose divorce.

Hopefully not for you. It really depends if you want to make a difference in your life. You can either choose to be like your parents or you can look forward and work hard in working out your future married life

Chances are no, unless youre going to live your parents marriage. Dont jinx your future marriage by thinking this. It wont happen unless you want it to. Marriages arent easy nowadays but many do survive with a little hard work and lots of real love. Although there are no guarantees in life or marriages, God has a habit of making good things happen to good people who want them. Best of luck in your future

You don't have to follow in your parents foot steps. It's good that you think of such a question, it tells me that your open minded and level headed enough to learn from others mistakes. Don't marry too young and you'll be fine.
