Short marriages not just for celebs
The H ran into one of his friends on Sat, someone who we just went to a wedding for in September. Apparently he's not with the girl anymore!!
I think they had been together over a year before they married, but still, they didn't even last more than 8 months as a married couple!? **SMH**
I even feel kinda jipped because my girl friends went out for a bachelorette thing the night of that wedding and I had to miss it for their wedding. So weird.

Re: Short marriages not just for celebs
Wham, bam, thank you ma'am!
What happened?
They must be one of the couples that advocate that "Marriage changes everything" - I had so many people tell me that when we were engaged.
"You don't want to get married, it changes the entire relationship"
I have no idea, you know guys don't pry for info on details and the H didn't ask any questions. The friend just said something along the lines of, "my life is completely different, J and I aren't together anymore" and that was all I got out of the H. I didn't know the girl at all, met her for the first time in her wedding dress.
I hate when they do that.
I can't count the number of times I've asked MH a follow up question only to get IDK"..
stupid boy.
That would irk me, too!
Very sad that it was such a short marriage... they obviously didn't take it seriously enough.
Bitter sweet
Ohhh snap! Talk about drama city, wow!
What a waste for all parties involved!
same w/ my brother and his XW and current wife--only his current is smart..she got KTFU
S/O...
Holy cow... so my good friend just told me they're getting separated. It's not a huge shock and I should say that it's probably for the best but you can't help being sad by it. They were married for 4 years so it wasn't a quickie marriage.
You need to stop reading posts.
This isn't the first time (if I remember correctly) that something has happened IRL to you after a post was written along the same circumstances.
I don't remember that, but if it is I agree.
This has been a long time coming I just didn't expect it so soon. I believe I mentioned her toxic relationship a couple of weeks ago.
oh no, that's never good news to hear even if you know the separation reasons are valid. I hope your friend is okay through this tough time, hopefully this only means a bright new beginning for her.
When I was in the Army I met someone who was 24 and married 3 times (but swears she'll NEVER marry again). All 3 men were in the Army.
1st H - she was 16 (her mom signed the paperwork). married for 5 years.
2nd H - she was 22. less than a year.
3rd H - she was 23. that marriage also lasted less than a year.
One of my bridesmaids got into a fight with me closer to the wedding (3 weeks before the wedding?) about why I was getting married - "If it's not broken, don't fix it", she told me. I didn't say this but I was totally thinking "so if a relationship is broken you fix it by getting married? or... what...?" because that quote does not fit the circumstance, but she's the kind of person you just cannot win with, so it's never worth fighting.
As ridiculous as I find it for some that age (or any really) to have been married 3 times, I am mildly impressed that the first time she got married it last for 5 years.
