Birth Order May Determine a Successful Marriage

A divorce website was recently asked if birth order actually determined how well you would do in marriage. The idea is that only children shouldn’t marry another only child as they are use to getting spoiled, first borns are leaders so should NOT marry another first born cause they’ll bump heads. However, middle children are more likely to have the successful marriage since they always dealt with the fighting and were peace keepers.

I’d like to try to do a study on this. If you don’t mind I’d like to know what birth order you were and if you have been divorced, are married or never been married. As for myself, sometimes it is a struggle but you must work for your marriage to work. Many just give up when things get tough but it is those that stick through it that come out a little bit stronger. I’ve just celebrated 12 years of marriage and I am the first born. He is also a first born. What are your opinions? Do you think it depends if you were first born or last?
