I’m sorry about your marriage ending in divorce, it would be a hard thing to have to endure.

It’s only natural that I would share with my wife about this as she knows my past, is part of my present, as well as my future.

Just a note: The purpose of my articles is to have discussions so that people can add their own opinions and read those of others.

If you could leave comments on the articles concerned it would be appreciated, as then others who are commenting on them can see your comments as well.

Hi Allan,
Yes, I realize your article made reference to the reasons people gave for certain behavior. My reference was to the personal conversation you said you had with your wife about the people you knew who had had been divorced and chose similar partners to the first.

I recall my young niece once telling me that her father had used me as an example of what not to do when choosing a boyfriend/life partner. My marriage had ended in divorce! I didn’t have the heart to tell my niece of the exploits of her father - my brother.

There are many factors which play a part in the break down of relationships. Some people who remain in a long term relationship quite often fail to see their own dysfunctional state of affairs, and their way of coping, is to ignore their own problems. Choosing instead to focus on the flaws and mishaps in the personal relationships of others.

By the way, about choosing a new partner with similar bad traits as a former partner. Repeated poor choice, quite often has to do with an individual who has been the child of an abusive parent(s) which result in low self esteem. The resultant low self esteem, stemming from a dysfunctional childhood (often in a two parent family) can go unrecognized during a persons life time.

Kind regards.

Hello “Annie”,

Yes, it is easy to make judgments from afar, especially when you take things out of context.

If you check, you will see that what I wrote was in relation to the excuses given by people for this behavior, and the people that they went into relationship with after the split.

Hi Allan,
Reading your article, “My mid life crisis made me do it.” I was amused to read, “My wife and I sat down and discussed the people we knew who had broken relationships, and then taken up with someone else.” It’s easy to make judgement (form opinions) from afar, eh mate? Must have been a bad TV night.

Cherio.

I just did it with a conservative 1,000,000 and it told me that I was in the top 0.001%

I don’t know exactly how accurate it is, but still, it gives good food for thought!

Hey Allan, thanks for the link! That globalrichlist.com site is hilarious. I typed in 45,000,000 just for fun and it asked me to enter my income… lol… it couldn’t configure the eight figure income!

Using affirmations and feeling gratitude followed by action is my formula and I tell you what… it does work for me
