Those Who Married SOMEONE They Weren’t Fully Sure About, How Has The MARRIAGE Turned Out?

[@freedomlindsay3084]

I married to escape a horrible home life. I didn’t realize it was a huge mistake until a few months in when he started trying to change everything about me when he had claimed he loved me just the way I was. It got to the point where he was constantly accusing me of cheating, and verbally abusing me all the time. I should have run when we had our child and his family started screaming “whose baby is this” so loudly my husband’s mom was removed from the hospital by security. From there it got worse. Because of the way I grew up I didn’t realize how bad things really were until I finally divorced him and married a wonderful man. The contrast in the 2 marriages was unbelievable. Sometimes I worried my wonderful second husband didn’t love me because he wasn’t obsessively jealous and didn’t demand to know where I was every minute of the day. I was so used to the verbal and mental abuse from growing up and the first marriage, I had a warped idea of what actual love looked like. Finally, after years of therapy, at the insistence of my second husband, I understood that true love doesn’t look like what I was used to. Never settle when it comes to love, and never marry just to escape an abusive home life, it just doesn’t work. I’m so happy I finally found true love.

I almost did that with my now ex-boyfriend. I'm so glad I changed my mind I rather be in my mid-thirties and single with my two babies than to be married to somebody I really cannot stand and just being with that person just to be with them That's the worst thing you ever doing in your life you never settle just wait your turn. Hell if Cher can find love at 80 almost we're pretty good we still got time😂

"Those who married someone they weren’t fully sure about?" Why are so many people eager to get married at all, let alone to someone they're "not fully sure about." Guess what people? You don't have to get married! If you should decide to get married, you'd better talk to a lawyer before you tie the knot to make sure you know the risks involved with (a) the financial reponsibility of having kids (b) the financial risks and emotional turmoil of getting divorced because almost 50% of all marriages in the U.S. will end in divorce or separation, and it is estimated that 41% percent of all first marriages end in divorce.

Don’t you wish you had just stayed single? I married my “better than being alone”. It blew up in my face, big time. He wasn’t who I thought he was.
