Who the bleep did I marry?

I think this looks kinda interesting (it's a new show that is going to be on ID).  I'm assuming it's based on real stories.  What would you do if you found out a shocking bit of information about your spouse several years into your marriage?

Then again, Pretty in Pink is going to be starting, so maybe I'll watch that

I've heard of similar issues, mostly regarding debt.  Once I heard that, Matt and I talked about our debt (the minimal debt that we have) and made sure neither of us was lying to the other.

I just hope he doesn't have a secret family.  He is working late tonight . .

My FI's stepsister was married August 8, 2009, and filed for divorce on September 1, 2010. She didn't know before she got married that her husband had a gambling addiction and $30k of credit card debt at the age of 23. He got fired in late July after $2700 went missing from his workplace. FI and I immediately guessed he did it because of the gambling problem. Whether that's true, who knows? But it was the last straw for her, and she kicked him out a few weeks later.

Well, I know someone who was married in January of this year and separated in June. Not sure of all the details. I'm pretty sure her husband just displayed the fact that he was a huge douchenozzle after the wedding.

What channel is ID?

The first episode was Mary Jo Buttafuoco, so yep, they're real stories.

A friend got married with the idea that he and his wife would apply to go to Africa with the PeaceCorps as soon as possible. They applied and were accepted, then she changed her mind. That was the first in a series of changes including things like "actually, I don't want to do that dream job I told you about, I just want to be a SAHW, so hurry up and get a job in this crap economy so that I can quit mine and have you support me for the rest of our lives." They are now in the process of getting a divorce. It's really sad, and it makes me think she was way too immature to get married in the first place.

A "friend" of mine got married in February, and gave everybody about a week's notice. She drove out of state to marry the guy, who is in the military. She came back, got the medical benefits, had a surgery she wanted/needed, and then basically dumped him. She started seeing this other guy and expected everybody to be goo-goo over him. Nobody was, seeing as how she was still married. The military guy didn't even know. Now she is pregnant by the boyfriend and again expects everybody to fall over ourselves to congratulate her. Um... no. I'm hoping the husband figures out soon what his wife is up to. I guess maybe he will, once he finds out she's preggo.
