Marrying after Divorce
Statistics show that nearly half of all divorced people get remarried, usually within three or four years of getting divorced. Unfortunately, statistics also show that second marriages are more likely to end in divorce than first marriages. With some work, however, it is often possible to make a second marriage last.

Making a Second Marriage Work
Many of the things that go into making a second marriage work are the same as making a first marriage work, such as love and dedication. Second marriages, though, may rely on you settling your first marriage in order for you to have a successful union. Some things you may need to settle are:
- Debts
- Child custody and support
- Emotional doubts
- Your previous relationship
These are among the most common factors that lead to a second divorce. If you have doubts about any of these things, wait until you have your affairs in order before jumping into a second marriage. Oftentimes, waiting until your affairs are in order is the difference between a happy marriage and a bitter divorce.
