I think some time ago I met a Christian woman on Match that's pretty devout on her faith. Local and well-to-do high school teacher. Good at her job actually.
Anyways, she is THRICE divorced. I think her first two men cheated and abusive...the last one just wanted out of the marriage. Wanted to be gone.
To me, I guess if you're speaking even in a secular level, it's like why not just throw in the towel and bother with marriage after that? I kind of gave her a hypothetical question of "Why bother with marriage at this point? Why not just have a boyfriend with no marriage in mind?"
As bad as that sounds, yeah, that'd be living in sin (if they lived together) or if she is no longer marriage minded.
But that's just it, after being divorced three times, wouldn't it being marriage-minded for husband #4 be kind of pointless?
I dunno, what do you say about Christians who have multiple marriages under their belt? Do you think they should just throw in the towel on that facet of their life. It's like (yeah, this sounds bad) "Here's something you're just not good at, so...don't even bother on a 4th marriage.
As they say, statistically that 2nd, and 3rd marriages have a higher failure rate than the previous ones.
