Older Adults Who Were Pushed Into Marriage Young Are Sharing Their Stories, And I’m Shocked


7.

“I was a waiting to wed in 1984, moved in with him and got a ‘shut up’ ring in late 1982, but he kept moving the wedding date. Diaphragms don’t work when you leave them in the drawer. Oops. We were both overjoyed and got married 3 months later. I was 31 and my bio clock had been driving me nuts since I’d finished my actuarial exams so there was no question I was having this kid.”

“But my husband was a difficult man — always had been. He was an alcoholic, controlling, and was unemployed the last 5 years of the marriage. We divorced in 1997. So, it ended in flames.

Right now I have a wonderful son, 3 grandchildren I love, a daughter-in-law who’s the daughter I never had, and more money than I need. Life is good. So, in the end it worked out, but there were some bumps in the road.”
