Should anyone be surprised when marriages fail when foundations are built upon bachelor/bachelorette party infidelity?

Just before marriage makes the difference?

    I never got the whole bachelorette/bachelor party thing. Who thinks "I love this man/woman so much I want to get married and spend the rest of my life with them.....Now where is my stripper?"
    Not me.

    I know one couple who did and they've been together for 10+ years, but they're the only ones I know who have done it and I don't think their nights out involved strippers.

    I like the eye.
    I get having a party. But the rest is just crazy and asking for problems later on. If my husband and I were to have one we likely would have had on together. Lol Not sure what you would call it.

    My husband caused our wedding to start 15 minutes late because HE was late.  He and his heathen friends drank all night and woke in a different state.  When they got to the Church, they all had that day-after-being-drunk look and wet hair from showering and running out the door.  My mother panicked but I was calm.  I knew him and knew that those five crazy guys might have gotten  into anything.  I was glad it wasn't jail.

    Exactly!  I haven't heard that one in a while.  Those guys are from my neck of the woods.  A lot of good music, mostly country/western, came out of  Ft. Payne/Muscle Shoals, Alabama.

    Otis Redding, Percy Sledge, Rolling Stones.................a lot of different kinds of musicians recorded up there.  There are two big studios (that I know of) and I believe the band, Alabama, has its own.

    That's cool. Alabama was my first favorite music group back in grade school.

    Marriages fail because taxes are so high. The only training boys and girls need to have a strong marriage is to see the way mommies and daddies treat each other. High taxes force mommies to get jobs and daddies to work overtime to support the family, so there is little time for proper parenting. 

    And that is most of the problem right there.

    What about the marriages where they pay $0 in income taxes and even get a refund? They get divorced as well.

    Yes, having a good example to imitate certainly helps. But ultimately it comes down to the way they treat one another and how they react to outside forces.
