My ex told me a while ago when her mother was her age, she broke up with her boyfriend of 2 years. Apparently he was just like me. The nicest guy, according to her.

 

She broke up with him for another guy, who eventually became my ex's father.

 

Recently, they just divorced. The guy from 30 some years ago apparently is still in love with her even though he has a wife and children.

 

I'm sure this is genetics, but it's so weird how things played out, right?

Erm no, about a billion people do this every single day on planet Earth I'd say

Historical repetitive experience has indicated to me that elements of nature and nurture are involved. Your post caused me to think of the most significant examples of past love interests/lovers who droned on incessantly about their mother's horrible behaviors; in retrospect, the apple didn't fall far from the tree. Such experiences finally drilled in the message to take a hard look at that FOO for signs of compatibility.

Does that also apply to divorce? I heard from several people that significant others with parents that are divorced are more likely to divorce as well as opposed to significant others with married parents.
