AMEN! Not long ago, my gentleman friend's youngest sister got married. My gentleman friend was in the wedding, so I could not sit with him during the ceremony or during the reception. At both events I was seated next to his OTHER sister's new boyfriend. Who was completely blotto the whole time. I avoided encouraging conversation as much as possible, but at one point he revealed to me that he is 39, and twice divorced (no kids). Now, I certainly won't throw stones at ANYONE with two divorces. Or five. Or whatever. Been there, done that.
But I did ask him if he ever thought he'd get married again. And he responded without hesitation "oh yes! I love love! Love conquers all!"
On the drive home from the wedding, I told my gentleman friend that I hope his sister isn't dumb enough to marry this guy...
