If you were to have your time over again, how many of us would marry your same husband/Wife Warts n All, and for the record I certainly would

My husband is my second husband and yes I would marry him over and over! I took many years to recover from my first husband leaving me and always felt I would want him back, but I look at him today with no regrets and realise I had a great escape!

Dyffryn Mon 09-Dec-19 17:37:10

Yes,’ yes, yes in fact I wish that I had married him 20 years earlier. He is the love of my life.

Daffydilly Mon 09-Dec-19 17:21:49

Absolutely. We've had some challenging times but I love the bones of him.

Juicylucy Mon 09-Dec-19 17:21:01

No definitely not, only good thing to cone out of it are my 2 beautiful DD.
Been divorced since 1991.

GranAnn42 Mon 09-Dec-19 16:21:22

No!!! Never! Not again , never!!

I would most certainly marry Mr Peardrop again, he is gentle, kind, funny, sexy and my rock, he is also occasionally irritating and exasperating but so am I. He's a fantastic husband, father and grandfather and a jolly good cook too. We have been together since 1965 and married in 1970.

Big hug for Polnan who had 50 years with a lovely man, I'm so sad for your recent loss.

Yes, no question. If you ask him the same question about me though his answer may not be so positive!

Lancslass1 Mon 09-Dec-19 16:01:09

Yes definitely ,because first husband gave me two wonderful sons and second husband is so lovely .

Mealybug Mon 09-Dec-19 15:47:41

No I wouldn't. Met when I was 16 (he was 23), married at 19, dtr at 24 and he hardly worked a day in his life encouraged by his parents. He had two brain tumours and now has dementia (not his fault I know) so for most of our married life I've been a nurse not a wife with no life of my own.

Not my first husband definitely not as I found out later he was interested in men and just married to look heterosexual to his parents and friends.
Second husband maybe but he's not very caring or emotional, and quite a cold person, but ok I suppose.

Ellie Anne Mon 09-Dec-19 15:39:37

Absolutely not

Taptan Mon 09-Dec-19 15:29:04

DEFINITELY NOT - if I had the chance to live my life over, I would not marry anyone, though I never regret having my children.

Hm999 Mon 09-Dec-19 15:20:59

Over a decade of marriage brought me 2 magic kids and a lot of pain. I wouldn't change my two for anything.

lilydily9 Mon 09-Dec-19 15:15:04

No! I married too young, I wish I had waited and seen more of the world.

icanhandthemback Mon 09-Dec-19 14:57:13

YES! My only regret is that I didn't get together with him many years earlier. We were like ships that passed in the night for years and even when I went out on our first date it was by accident. It took me 3 months to decide whether I wanted a more than friends relationship with him but I'm so glad he persuaded me!

mtp123 Mon 09-Dec-19 14:36:52

We have been married over 50 years and I still love him to bits! Must admit we have had our disagreements but neither of us bears grudges and usually end up laughing at ourselves!

Dareyouto Mon 09-Dec-19 14:30:10

Hell no! As soon as my 2 daughters became independent I divorced him and have lived happily alone for the last 30 years

Tigertooth Mon 09-Dec-19 14:14:17

No. But I have a good and fairly luxurious life and 4 great kids so I'll hang on in there - we're not suited and it was a rebound thing - should have listened to my mother!

timetogo2016 Mon 09-Dec-19 14:09:57

On the fence for this one ladies.

Oopsminty Mon 09-Dec-19 13:35:44

Absolutely

But he is my second.

We've been married 29 years and together 32

Albangirl14 Mon 09-Dec-19 13:35:42

As it is my 47th Wedding Anniversary today I wanted to add my message Yes Yes Yes and I feel we were lucky to find each other .

Oldandverygrey Mon 09-Dec-19 13:34:21

Been married for 56 years to a wonderful man, which is just as well really as we married until death do us part.

HettyMaud Mon 09-Dec-19 13:34:14

I’m amazed by how many of us have married more than once. Twice for me. How about other GNetters?

Witchypoo Mon 09-Dec-19 13:28:24

No. Live together not frowned on now. Have two more children. Option to leave easier these days if you want to.

Saggi Mon 09-Dec-19 13:16:45

NO!
