I Never Thought I'd Get Married Again. Here's What Changed

Writer Meg Raby was all too aware of all the ways the stars have to align to make a second marriage work. So she was skeptical she'd ever get remarried.

She writes: "It's not enough to find one another attractive and inspiring, nor is it enough to be on the same page regarding religion and politics. Can he handle my baggage? Can I handle his? I'm working on myself and healing. Is he? The fact is, if you leave one marriage and enter another without having done any introspection or owning your role in its downfall, you will probably repeat it in the next relationship."

So what changed? She lays it all out in this post, which is thoughtful and very sweet. Have a great weekend, and if you're in the path of the Arctic blast, stay warm!
