Let me add something else, if you'll allow, my friend.

To: people I knew in high school

Half of all marriages end in divorce.

So cut it out.

Because if there's a chance you might fail, it's always better not to try at all.

(That statistic was actually made up, and the high number of divorces is also counting second and third marriages, which tend to have a higher failure rate than first marriages.)

I was not aware of that. But it makes sense that if you've chosen someone ill-suited for you up front, subsequent choices won't be any more successful.

My snarky comment was mainly directed towards my own insecurity---I'm nearly twenty-eight, and at least half the people who I went to high school with are now married.

Re: heh

[accordingtomoi]

so are half of those people divorced?

Statistically speaking, they're on their way. It's just a matter of time.
