If you only give yourself one chance to be in a relationship
you'll make better decisions about who you date

But that's the church's teachings on marriage, though.
You know that marriage is for life - so you need to be sure exactly who you are choosing to marry.

@HootyTheNightOwl why say but?
@Jackaloftheazuresand Because so many people hate the church and its teachings - especially when people are choosing to stay and live with abuse rather than getting out and waiting to see if they outlive their spouse so that they may remarry again and have a chance to be happy.

@HootyTheNightOwl ah, I doubt those people actually trust the rule in their heart of hearts. They still think there is a way out, like becoming a widow as you mention therefore they do not give proper thought to their choice in partner
@Jackaloftheazuresand In many cases, there is just a 50/50 chance of out living your spouse - unless you have a significant age gap with your spouse... so I think that they will be more likely to give it serious consideration than you might like to think.
Assuming that I don't have an accident or something, it would be fair to assume that I will outlive my husband, given the age gap between us... but it is a long time to be living with abuse and stuck in misery. I get that people may not consider abuse going into a marriage because few people tend to consider things like that and the effect that aging will have on their future spouse prior to marriage.
