“My New Wife Changed The Second I Said ‘I Do’”: 41 Reasons People’s Marriages Ended In Less Than A Year, As Shared OnlineNot me but a family member:
She was married after a quick relationship. His family had money, and I think she wanted a nice life. A few months later, she was in a horrific car crash which took her 9-year-old sister’s life, their grandmother, and left her with severe injuries – shattered 3/4 of her face, and she may have broken a hip, and her back too if memory serves. She was in a medically induced coma when her sister’s funeral occurred.
Less than a month or two after she gets out of the hospital, her husband (married about 6 months at this point), says to her, “You need to get over the accident.”
Edit: I should mention that the “money” her husband’s family had was small town money. Thousands, not millions.

“My New Wife Changed The Second I Said ‘I Do’”: 41 Reasons People’s Marriages Ended In Less Than A Year, As Shared OnlineNot me, but my brother. He got his first serious girlfriend during his senior year of college. He was doing a lot of different stuff with her and told me that he was really happy. I told him that I thought that was great, but that he needed to remember to take things slow. A week later he bought a ring.
Everyone in my family attempted to talk him out of it. Everyone. But I knew my brother was going to do whatever he wanted, so I just said “Sure.” They rented a house, bought furniture, moved in, got married, and after a month, they got divorced. I think it was soon enough to get an annulment, but I’m not sure.
Main thing was that my brother wanted to move out of our hometown when he was finished with college. His wife was completely fine never leaving (I don’t even think she was going to school, she would just sit at home all day). So, that was that.
Good times.

“My New Wife Changed The Second I Said ‘I Do’”: 41 Reasons People’s Marriages Ended In Less Than A Year, As Shared OnlineHis brother asked to move in with us and I said no (brother ended up moving in anyway) and during subsequent argument he said “no wonder people get divorced all the time”. We had been married for about 6 months at that point. Went very downhill from there.

Sitting across from the court house waiting to go in. I thought “you are going to look back on this moment and remember that you KNEW it was the wrong thing to do”.
I certainly did. We only got married because I was living with him and my whole family wouldn’t speak to us as we were “living in sin”.
Well we showed them. 😳😳😳

Oh, I’m sorry and I hope you’re better off now. My boyfriends mother is extremely conservative and religious and would harp on us for ‘living in sin’. Respectfully lady, your son was a nasty b***before we met, so I didn’t do anything there.

He casually invited his parents along on our honeymoon, and told them we’d pay for it. AND they not only accepted, they were SO EXCITED and immediately wanted to take over planning it.
Obviously that wasn’t the only s****y thing he did. Eventually found out he was cheating on me and I fast tracked divorce before there were any kids or assets involved.

Nothing screams romance more than having your parents on your honeymoon while you’re trying to get your weird on. 🙄. That’s weird for so many reasons!

“My New Wife Changed The Second I Said ‘I Do’”: 41 Reasons People’s Marriages Ended In Less Than A Year, As Shared OnlineMy ex was manipulative and found every excuse not to meet my friends or limit my time away from my family. Long story short, we ran into one of good friends into the mall and they seemed to hit it off really well. I was happy because I was like, yes, I could finally have a double date, because that’s what my friend suggested. But when we got home, she mentioned that she didn’t like his job. Even though he was one of the nicest and funniest guys in the world, that was it. I saw that she just purposely kept me away from *everyone*! And that made me angry
She ended up cheating on me with some guy out of the country and we got divorced months later because nobody took anything from each other.

I attended a wedding a few years ago that wasn’t over the top extravagant, but is what I want if I could ever save up enough money – beautiful venue, open bar with local beers, great food, and tastefully decorated.
A couple months after, we heard through our friends that it came out that he’d been cheating with one of the bridesmaids in the year or two leading up to the wedding. And that he had this concept that nothing he did had repercussions or harmed anyone (the bad kind of philosophy major) so he didn’t see the big deal

I’m wondering why the friends told now … after so many years. He must have been doing something immoral.

One week after being married, exactly 7 seven days. I heard him in the bathroom with the shower on, but he was talking on the phone. As if the shower was loud enough so that I couldn’t hear him. Anyway, i grabed the phone and ran… I mean RAN out the back door to the other side of the pool, so no matter which way he came towards me, I would move the opposite direction. No surprise it was a girl, she told me he never mentioned he had a wife or was seeing anyone. They apparently had been dating for months. He told me a bs story of how he kept trying to end it with her but SHE was possessive and wouldn’t leave him alone and kept calling. I was 19 and stupid so I stayed with him, but I knew at that moment I had made a mistake in marrying him. Thank GOD we didn’t have children. But, we stayed together for 4 years and I endured more than any woman ever should. 15 years later, he’s now in prison, no surprise.

We married legally when we found out I was pregnant(after trying for 3 years). The plan was to marry at the court house then get some tests done to see why I wasn’t getting pregnant. Well it happened backwards. By the time I gave birth we were already married legally but not in front of a priest and we planned to have our wedding and to baptize our son. So a 2 in 1 ceremony and when our son was 5 months old I went to our home country to prepare everything that needed to be prepared for the big event and my husband stayed in the country where we were living and working. This was roughly 3 weeks before the event.
The time I spent away from my husband felt like a breath of fresh air. Like I was spending my days underwater and I was finally free to just breathe. I reverted to my old happy self. Smiling and joking all day long with family and friends. I realized it but I decided to go on with the wedding as we already had a kid and I really thought after everything my husband will be les manipulative and less controlling and he would realize what truly matters.
But no. He came home 1 week before the wedding and we fought and I cried almost daily.
The wedding did happen and everything was somehow perfect and 2 days after the wedding we got into a huge fight about some missing money(in my country the bride and the groom receive money from everyone invited to the wedding), and he ended up leaving me and our son. We divorced 4 months later.
I realized a lot of stuff being away from him but I lied to myself that he would care about me and our son but he only ever cared about himself.

My ex was with a woman for five years, and married for 2-3 months. She had cheated on him and got caught before the wedding but they somehow managed to work it out. She had also pressured him into marriage by giving him money and saying “if you don’t come back with a ring, it’s over.”
So two to three months into the marriage, he had noticed that she was acting shady again. Excusing herself to the bedroom randomly with her iPad, and going to her girlfriend’s house (she’s straight) at any given hour to have sleepovers and hangout. One day she left to her girlfriend’s as usual, and he found she had left her iPad this time which she usually keeps close guarded.
He found exchanges between her and at least three different men, one message from her to the man that bags their groceries saying that she was pregnant. My ex cannot have children. The other two men she had cheated with was a coworker and the security guard at the local mall.

People think I’m crazy but it’s stories like this that make me Google potential dates and trust people but sometimes verify the things they say and, just like you get a house inspected before you buy, would definitely run a background check before agreeing to marry someone. In reality, marriage is nothing but a business contract, cover your a*s.

Not the person married, but the BIL of the groom / brother of the bride. Lasted less than a year married (several dating). He treated my sister like sun-baked horses**t, and while honestly she *is* a pile of sun-baked horses**t, you shouldn’t treat your damn wife like it. Nearly got the cops called on him several times while they were together, and they ended up breaking it off because my sister finally got fed up with his s**t.
For those interested in how they’re doing: Last I heard the dumbf**k she called a husband got a job but nothing else, and my sister went through another marriage that lasted less than a year because they got married almost as soon as they started dating, which ended well (full sarcasm; she cheated on him “at least twelve times” according to her estimation). She also apparently has goo-goo eyes for someone who went to jail for aggravated assault and is going back to jail.. also for aggravated assault.
She’s well aware that her attraction to s**t men exists (she admits it herself that she wants an abusive relationship despite it being, you know. abusive. and horrible), and nothing I’ve said helps.
I’ve since cut contact with all parties due to some long-standing family b******t that’s nearly as old as I am, but damn if her last two marriages weren’t a giant mistake.

“My New Wife Changed The Second I Said ‘I Do’”: 41 Reasons People’s Marriages Ended In Less Than A Year, As Shared OnlineNot me but I worked at a company where two employees were engaged. After they married she sent out an all users email advising her name change and then almost exactly a year later sent another one changing it back. Apparently right up to the wedding she was seeing someone else. It’s seems that both her and her fiancé knew it was mistake but it was one of those enormous weddings and her father was paying out a s**t load of money. They were even having dance lessons for when the bride and groom have the first dance, that kind of deal. The whole thing was like a supertanker that couldn’t be stopped so they had their day and split up soon after.
