Or, it could be like finding a valuable antique at a garage sale, ready to be tossed away by someone who doesn't appreciate its value. I just keep telling people I've skipped the first divorce so many people in my generation have gone through, and will eventually find a nice divorced guy whose first wife simply didn't appreciate his dedication to work (workaholics aren't for everyone, and spending too much time at the office rather than at home can be a big factor in breaking up marriages).
