Would you remarry at 50 if divorced or widowed?

If my wife divorced me, I would not remarry, unless it was to her. I would spend all my time trying to figure out how to get her back.

If my wife died, yes, I would remarry. Yes, I like companionship, sex, financial partnership, and all the other great stuff that goes with being married.

PS - I'm 51.

Maybe. I've been divorced over 15 years now, and while I have no specific desire to marry, I'm not ruling it out. I don't care if I don't marry again, but I'll be 50 later this year and would enjoy having someone to share Life with (even unmarried).

I'm not anti-marriage, but it would take really exceptional circumstances before I'd ever choose to do it again.

I doubt I'd get married again. My husband says he wouldn't either. And our marriage is great! It just seems to be the majority that thinks people HAVE to get married if they aren't; like, it's the ultimate goal or something. Personally, I can't see myself wanting anyone else after my husband.

I would HOPE to meet someone else that I could love and share life with. I like being married to my husband. I might enjoy being married to someone else if he were not around.

So.. was there drinking going on? I ask because you sound very defensive and it's just a question... not a judgement. We all get to have our own opinions. This isn't a matter of "right" or "wrong".

Never say never but I'm thinking, when this one is over, whenever that is, that's it. Plus after more then twenty years married, I wouldn't have a clue as to how to even engage another.

Not unless she would agree that we don't have any kids. I wouldn't want anymore if I was able at 50 to get her pregnant

well i am 21 ,never been married so i don't know.. I guess marriage at 50 is about companionship rather having a family, a house etc so if i felt i needed a long term companionship i would.

Never. I enjoy organising my own life. Yes it costs a bit more to do things alone but it's well worth the lack of aggravation.

Divorced? Maybe. Widowed? Probably not. I know it's until death do you part, but I still probably wouldn't feel right about it.

At 60 it looks grim, men have let me down and even though I want a driver and intellectual companionship I might pass and just go to Mass.
