Married once. 27 years now. I won the wife lottery. My wife may have gotten the booby prize.

None would probably be a popular option. Twice myself.

Pretty much my story. Even the 27 years bit. I am a good bread winner though, so not a total booby prize.

I've never been married, nor have I had a boyfriend, and I don't care. I believe in the institution of marriage, but not for a free 60s Spirit like myself. I don't go around shaging every guy that I meet, either.

3 marriages here. First 2 failed, third one still hanging in the balance, could go either way. :(

One marriage, lasted through the childraising years. A post-childrearing relationship, sixteen years in the making now, hasn't been ritualised.

What a lousy poll.
Where is the "none" or "never" option?

I would never considering marrying anyone ever.

I have never even been on a date. Haven't even had a friend for the past 10 years of my life.

I'm in my 30s now and unless I can figure out a way to changes things I'll be punching my own ticket soon.

There is no reason to carry on an existence like this, waiting and aging until the day that an illness strikes and dying because there is noone to help.

Never married (it would be a 'civil partnership' in the UK for me), only one long-term relationship of 8 years, and maybe two short-term 'flings'.
Not sure now if I ever would. Someone would need to be pretty special to cope with me, yet still want to remain with me.

Twice.

First marriage was physically, verbally and sexually abusive. I hung in there for four years. Which was 3 years 5 months too long.

I've been married to my husband now for 5 years, been together for 7.
