The Grass Is Always Greener VS..

There Are Other Fish in the Sea. When you are giving advice which do you believe is true? That there is more than one "love" of a life and that when you divorce you are opening yourself up to healthier relationships, or do you primarily think that relationships outside a marraige only look good but reality is much different.

The high divorce rate of second and third marriages (The High Failure Rate of Second and Third Marriages | Psychology Today) seem to suggest that as much as we'd like to believe that there is someone out there who is "better" than our spouse it is patently false.

What are your thoughts and what is your criteria for advising someone one way or the other? Personal stories welcome to get a feel for the poster. Also what are your thoughts on "just being alone" for a while? The article above also suggests that children are a stabilizing force in marriages. When is it better for the kids to get out of the marriage and when is it better to show them how to work through tough times?
