    You can have one, maybe two divorces that aren’t your fault.

    But if you have 3 or more divorces, you are the problem.

      There are two reasons: you are the problem or your taste in an ability to find a compatible person is extremely bad. They’re definitely part of the problem, but possibly not fully.

        If you repeatedly have extremely bad taste in partners, that’s also you being the problem, just in a different way.

        That was such a good book. And for anyone who hasn’t read, yeah she’s the reason she goes through 7 husbands.

      Not only that, but this woman has had 5 marriages in a short enough time that her dad is still able to walk her down the aisle.

        Eh… If your parents live into their 80s and you were born when they were about 20, you could easily still have them around in your 60s. And living into your 80s is pretty common. Certainly not unheard of to live into the 90s or 100s, so it’s more than possible to be 80 years old and still have your father walk you down the aisle … though, at that age, it might be difficult for him to walk that far unassisted.
