OK I've met some with as many as 6 and as few as one.

Can I be classified as skeptical because f i think the words "I love you " from them are suspect?

I have been married twice and divorced twice. I don't think that marriage is for everyone. There are some people that get married and think it is a game but, then you have some people who are married for life. To me personally, I would like to meet an honest man that doesn't cheat and thinks it is ok.

People don't always get divorced because they don't love someone. It could be because their husband/wife had a drug dependency for example and therefore the living conditions were unbearable ... just an idea that it might make sense to find out what the divorce was about before passing judgement ...

I have been married twice and divorced the same amount (funny how that works...) when I tell people of that...I feel as though I have failed in those relationships...I did have a part in the failures...I recognize that and have grown from that and I believe that if two people are meant to be together...they always will be...otherwise they are a learning experience for life...love
I will get married again to the right person...

Not sure if I'd be skeptical of them thinking that they were truly in love .......... but I'd be skeptical of them choosing the right person and being able to maintain a relationship. I think that its possible to be in love - but that doesn't always create a good marriage.

Many divorces tells me you are seeking something outside of yourself, but really the answer is within, and somehow you have not figured it out yet; never marrried - afraid to take a chance, pessimistic, selfish maybe, or perhaps just clueless with no real agenda or sense of direction, bad luck? The possibilities are numerous.

I seem to agree it would be suspicious if someone had as many as 6 divorces..besides that is just about the worst thing in the world to go through. I did after being married almost 26 yrs. Thing is it takes two to make a marriage work, two working together heading down the same path even if no one else in the world is on the path with you two.

You have to decide together if divorce is an option, and if it's not, take that word out of your solutions to the problems that you'll face together during life's journey.angel Times of walking away will look appealing, but if you walked away, then what, your love for that other person is just now further away, and you're wondering why that thought even came to your mind in the first place.

Divorce is a bad game to lose at,

I would avoid playing with someone with too much experience...
