Quick poll: how many Web Watch readers are currently divorced?
We’d go with an average and say that at least 25% of you are… but we figure that may be a bit high of an estimate.
Even so, it wouldn’t surprise us if that were the case. There do seem to be a large number of divorced people in this world, but they all seem to have the same question in their minds:
Maybe Angelina and Brad have it right — just don’t get married (or, at the very least, tell the kids that you’re going to get married… even if it’s “eventually”).
Couples that we thought were in it for the long haul — Johnny Depp, for example — can even surprise us by separating.
Over the years, Web Watch has seen any number of our friends get married, get divorced, and get married again. For some, it’s turned into a comedy of errors as to how long their current marriage is going to last – whether it will be shorter or longer than the last one.
It happens.
Marriage isn’t for everyone.
It’s June, which means that every young woman’s heart turns to marriage. And more importantly, weddings.
There’s nothing more special than a June bride (says everyone who has been a June bride). That walk down the aisle, when the entire wedding party turns to look at you in your radiant white dress. The music swells, the tissues come out…
All that pomp and circumstance for what? Just to be able to wear one dress for one time, and then to put it away in a dress bag to hang in the back of your closet until you finally decide to throw that thing out.

In some divorces, couples fight over who gets the toilet paper.
One of Web Watch’s friends wanted out of his marriage so badly, he left everything behind. The ex-wife got everything – including his clothes. He felt it was easier to just replace all his stuff then it was to have to deal with her in any way.
Yeah, that was a rough divorce, but rest assured that he’s in a much, much happier place now.

Bridal Bargains: Secrets to Throwing a Fantastic Wedding on a Realistic Budget
If you’re on a tight budget like most newlywed couples are, then you may be the type of couple that still wants to throw a fancy, special wedding but are trying to keep your costs down.
There are all sorts of ways to do this — Web Watch is in favor of the “don’t invite anyone” wedding in terms of cost containment — but on the other hand, our input on this subject is often summarily dismissed.
