I got married the first time at the court house, Ex-husband was Jewish, I'm Episcopal, he didn't want to get married in a Church, I didn't want to get married in a Synagog. Married to him less than 3 years, he hit me, I left, end of that story, lol.. Second time, I was with him for 4 1/2 years, yep, got preggo, and due to limit money, we too got married at the court house. Heading for divorce due to his lack of better judgement, he's talking to someone else from his childhood, in secret until I recently found out and says he wants his privacy, it's only been 31 years. Go figure! ! !. But, there will never be a third trip to the court house, or anyone other house for that fact, for me. No wedding dress either time. I sure think I missed out on that one, sure wished I had planned better regarding the dress and the men in my life.......Oh well, it is what it is....as the kids say......Moving on to a better life, by myself.........
