If you had to pick someone to run a company for you would you pick the person who has bankrupted a company or two, or the person who has had longterm success with one or two?

I would rather ask couples married for a long time with a variety of situations.

Exactly! If you didn't die together then your marriage was a failure and so were you in this instance. It's human nature to place all of the blame on the other person and some people truly believe it but in some way, shape or form you also have to take responsibility. Regardless of the circumstances surrounding the actual breakup. BTW I haven't been dishing out marriage advice here, I'm afraid that the old life time commitment thing is almost impossible in today's world, with today's attitudes.

IMO the bigger failure is any marriage where they have fallen out of love or never really were in love, but are too afraid to split apart even though they should....

Or any "Married With Children" style marriage where the only thing they do is sit around watching TV......
