A successful relationship depends on two things - you and your partner.
You have both got to want to make it work -
you both need to apply give and take -
you both need to see the situation from the partners point of view.
Providing you always do this and never go to sleep without resolving any situation that may ever arise between you, there should be no reason why you shouldn't be able to make a go of this and have a very long and very happy contented relationship.
I wish you luck in your future decisions and hope this one works for you.
As for the curse of your familys past - that one will only ever haunt you as long as you choose to let it.

First of all you must realise that the divorce rates these days are exstremely high, so just because many people in your family have had them, it doesnt mean its something to do with your family in particular- alot of people go through it. However, perhaps you will 'follow in your parents footsteps' if the reason being for them any divorces in your family are due to something that they have all done wrong- like not being able to communicate well within relationships or something. However, either way, you dont HAVE to follow in their footsteps. You just have to find out as much as you can about being in relationships. THere are HEAPS of self help boooks and web sites out there that you can read hwich will advise you on this. So I suggest you do that, to give yourself the best chance possible.
