My second daughter’s first marriage lasted 4 years and her second has lasted 7 years so far. My first daughter’s first marriage lasted 8 years and her second has lasted 13 years so far. My brother’s first two marriages lasted only a few years each, but his third has lasted 49 years so far. My wife’s mother’s first marriage lasted less than 2 years, but her second lasted 22 years until she died. I don’t know how any of them beat the odds, but I’m glad they did.
