Today, it’s not uncommon to find someone who has multiple divorces under his belt. Divorce is more socially acceptable than it once was, for better or for worse. It’s obviously better for those who are truly stuck in miserable marriages that are just wrong for them. They finally feel they have a way out, and won’t be scorned by society. But the current casual attitude towards divorce may be to the detriment of people who just give up on relationships too quickly. Anyone in a successful and happy marriage will tell you that it is the work they put into it that made it so. Some people just have flighty personality types, dropping anything—from a job to a pet to a marriage—the moment things get tough. So, if you’re seriously involved with a man who has been divorced multiple times, and he wants to get married, what should you do? Here are some helpful questions to ask yourself, and him.

How quickly did he re-marry?

How much time elapsed between each marriage? Was he single for multiple years between each one? Or, was he perhaps engaged before divorce papers were signed? Did he walk out of a marriage directly into a relationship, because he was cheating during his marriage?
