I go with the line of I don't really give a fuck what you want/are looking for, this is what/who I am, if you don't like it then move on.

Cue sound of women moving on in droves....    Cheesy

not at all - it's just about finding someone that's compatible with who 'you' are.  I spent almost the whole of my last marriage not being myself because that wasn't what he wanted me to be. I regret few things in life, but I regret that. Having said that, I'll probably do it again.
Friend of mine has had 2 marriages/divorces in last 10 years. He states that trying to change/fit in with what his wife wanted caused no end of resentment.

100% - trying to make a relationship work with someone you're just not really suited to is a recipe for disaster, which I repeat time and time again.

Almost ditto but i'd like this one to work. There are some major issues to overcome though.

and you will continue to do it, until the day you don't, and that will be the one that lasts.

 Nothing to worry about though. Its much better to be on the field of play than watching from the sidelines.

Yep - there is a school of thought that says instead of getting married just go ahead and give your house to a woman you do not like.  You will save yourself a lot of time and aggravation.

Try to avoid going on Internet dating sites this time round Terry.  Wink. Reduces the risks of getting outdrawn by not going all in without the pot odds to do so

For those that were divorced and got remarried, a major predictor of success the second time round was where the blame for the previous failure is laid. Those accepting some role in the failure (and probably seeking to overcome this element the second time round) faired much better.

Kind of hard if you married an axe murderer or something...

don't, i brought a 2nd property with my financee in dec 07 as my house wasn't good enough as it was mine not ours, so i Brought us a prop that we would live in and rent mine out. I payed the deposit and the money to do it up (about 24k total) well in april 08 we split up as she was sleeping with one of my dealers and siad she hadn't loved me for 6 months and thought the house would bring us together ?? ?? ?? ?? ??

So she then wouldn't pay her share of the mortgage and wouldn't let me rent it out, so i had to move back into mine and try and pay two mortgages and put up with her seeing one of my cardroom staff whilst i found out my supposeed friends at work knew about the affair whilst i was away at the gukpt tours.

Today i got a bill for £50,222,39 as the prop got repo'd at the bottom of houseing crash as i couldn't rent or have her help in payment.

I'm clearly not even doing that right - left both my marriages with less money than I had before.
