No one sets out to marry the wrong person. What is it that brings two lovers together in a way that each partner makes promises they cannot keep? Perhaps we are tired of being lonely or succumb to an attraction that ignores an other's submerged and difficult character. Or we fall in love quickly, only to then tire of the slog of a loyal commitment. Or a partner may grow up in a marriage but in a way that grows them out and away from it. When We Marry the Wrong Person presents eight stories of attraction, commitment and marital failure. All are partnerships entered hopefully. Some survive and some do not for reasons as varied as the characters who enter them.
