I agree. While in my early 20's I was the typical stupid girl that went after all the wrong guys, it took these bad relationships in order to show me what a fool I was. I married my best friend of 7 years and we've been together for almost 5 years now.
Sometimes women who are young and still exploring relationships are just in a state of transition in their lives, even if they end up marrying the guy that is bad for them. I believe statistics show that 2nd marriages still end in divorce most of the time. I'm not sure what the reason behind this would be, but a lot of the guys in MR would blame the woman.
My father is on his 3rd marriage but I can assure you his 2 prior divorces were 100% his doing. But this is only one example. Not sure what good we can do by pointing our finger at one group or the other.

It's so funny how many assholes come out of the woodwork in MensRights when you say things like "don't give up, there are good women out there that genuinely want a good guy." Your assumptions are wrong. Our friendship was mostly long-distance after I moved out of the state we both lived in after high school. I joined the military then started college blah blah blah we both had lives and goals. Eventually we both came to a point to where we were in the position to settle. He was in Colorado, I was in Utah. I drove out to see him a couple times that year, he drove out to see me once. We got engaged over a Christmas, he got a job out here. It all worked out. I didn't settle for him. I just had a moment of clarity where I knew that if he got married to someone else, I'd be heartbroken even if we weren't in a romantic relationship. He never admitted to having any kind of romantic feelings for me until after I pursued him.
