Do you think that God has created someone special for you or would you rather just marry anyone who may end up divorcing you? Like what do you think?

Obviously no one should just marry someone for the sake of it, otherwise it will inevitably end in divorce.
If you marry someone for all the right reason and try your hardest at making it last but it ends in divorce anyway then there is no shame in it. It is just one of those unfortunate things.
There are many elements that make a good marriage and being totally in love alone does not always work.
I think your question is a little silly, everyone surely wants to marry someone special rather than just anyone.

I think God made a soul mate for everyone. The problem is weeding through the others. I don't think anyone gets married with the mentality that the other person may end up divorcing them, but unfortunately most of us don't have ESP and you never know what time and stress is going to turn another person into or what it may turn you into.
I think it's better sometimes to take that chance at happiness than to wait for a maybe, unless of course the person is abusive.
I'm glad I married my first husband, even though in the end he wasn't my soul mate. I thought he was for a time and we are both better people now because of that marriage.
I found my soul mate, finally. It's still going strong. :)

I don't know really, thats kind of a tricky subject. Some people believe in soulmates, sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. I do believe I have found the one I want to marry, and I do think it was "meant to be". If I never met him, I think I may have married but it may have not worked out. Either way, If and when you meet that special potential marriage partner, always be careful, take things slow, and make sure you both have a lot of communication and love to last for years to come, or it will fail easily. Good luck

No one would rather just marry anyone, who may end up divorcing them. What an odd question for you to ask. However, I do not believe there is for everyone only one person for all their life. There are many people, widows and widowers and divorcees, who find another person later, whom they hold as dearly, or sometimes even more so, than their first partner. I believe that our needs are met as we need them, and by whom will best fill that need at the time.

I am sure there are many people who may be compatible with you. If you are looking for perfection, you will never find it. You have to understand we are all still far from perfect and by growing together we may help each other become better people. In the bible David had over 1,000 wives so I don't think there was only one that he preferred. God gives us free will, what we do with it is another story. Try and be discerning in your choices before dating and that may help narrow the field to someone that fits your choices in a mate.

I think God has created someone special for me. I wouldn't marry someone unless I was SURE they were right for me. Because I would never wanna have to get a divorce or put my kids through that.

If you think logically about it you will choose your marriage partner from a very small (relative to the entire population of eligible partners) group of friends. It is therefore not realistic to think that the person you choose to marry is the one and only person for you. It may seem like that at the time while you are wrapped up in each other but believe me when you find that perfect partner (even if it's after you've married the wrong person) you'll know all about it.

I do not believe there is only one perfect person for each of us, love just isn't that limiting (and humans aren't really all that unique). But I also don't think you should just marry anybody who asks, either.
That said, if I had known at age 19 (when I first married) that I wouldn't meet my current hubby, who is my greatest, truest love, until I was 38- I would have waited happily for him.
Sad thing is, without going thru the prior marriages and accompanying poo, I would never have recognized him as the jewel he is.

I don't believe in 'soul mates.' Say if my husband died, I'm sure I could find happiness with someone else in time. I do believe that sometimes God brings certain people together. When you are married, you are making a promise to stay together, regardless of who you meet in the future.

We all have someone special for us to marry. Some times some woman or men never find each other so that is why their are so many divorces in this world.
