Do you know couples who you have always thought would never work out end up staying together for the long haul? Or the opposite, who you thought would be together forever, but ended up divorced?
My husband was my rebound guy after a 4.5 year relationship with the guy I thought I'd be married to, and everyone including myself never thought we would still be together 22 years later (married for 20!). I also recently met up with an ex-coworker who had a rough 5+ year relationship with her boyfriend with whom she fought with all the time, and turned down his proposal 2 times....but eventually marrying and they are celebrating 20 years this year as well.
My cousin dated this girl for 10 years, and they lived together for 7 of those years, but sadly were divorced a couple years after tying the knot. This came as a shock to us, because we all thought having lived together for all those years, they had already gotten used to each other's lifestyle. Found out later that she resented being tied down, and becoming a suburban housewife, and wanted to live in the big city continue having an active nightlife.
The thread about the guy proposing with the MMD is what got me thinking about crazy relationships and surprising endings...
