Well then, the concensus seems to be that success in a life or a relationship is relative. Essentially marriages (or, any relationship) that end in divorce are only "failures" if that's how either spouce chooses to define it.

Regardless, there seems to be a social norm that equates divorce with "failure," much like it was a business venture between partners that went bankrupt.

Overcoming this stigma is essential.

The number of respondents that feel positive about the relationship between beer and "success" is quite encouraging.

Perhaps we should all concentrate more on brew, and less on our relationship "failures?"
