Lately, a friend of mine, (a male one and not married) expressed his opinion that divorced people have to marry other divorced people. For him, a man or a woman that has been already once married and got divorce, has completed a circle, that an unmarried person hasn't yet. For him, is not good for a person to stop another person to complete the first circle, as he likes to call it. What do you think of it?

Your friend is entitled to his opinion, but there are no facts to back him up. Whether two people are going to be happy together has nothing to do with whether one or both of them has been divorced. There are plenty of happy marriages where one person has been divorced, and it's the other person's first marriage. I have no idea wht he means by completing a circle, but it sounds like something he made up.

In his point of view, seems that the "circle" is a path that someone is following to complete certain aspects in life. He had an affair with a friend of mine that she was already married and divorced and she had 2 children already, his parents weren't in favour of this relationship and his dear mother maybe brainwashed him. He says that a woman that is already been married once and has a child, takes care more of the child than the husband. To me seems like a fear.

NO! I seriously don't agree with your friend. Mistakes happen maybe one person married in a rush of feelings but later realised that s/he were not yet prepared for it and they walk out of it. Now this does not mean that if that person wants to marry again s/he should look for a divorced person. I mean you don't fall in love looking that the person is divorced. It just happens. I don't think there is any circle which doesn't complete and all. Well thats what I think...:-S LOL

You are in my line of thinking. I do think that a person that has already been married and has a child or more, can't marry a person that is in the same situation. There comes between them the factor "your son/daughter did that" etc
