You can tell the moment when the penny drops by the look on Joelle’s face right at the end.. You guys are freaking awesome. Very best of wishes for you both. It’s rare when two people who gel so well stumble upon each other. Cherish every moment.
Not at all. Because it is not a learning curve. It is a sorting process wherein people who are short on the qualities necessary for a successful marriage increasingly as they fail yet again become part of a progressively smaller pool of increasingly recalcitrant rejects. Such folks are usually very self-unaware, such as this man appears to be.
I wonder what the " qualitys necessary" are for a successful marriage as I somebody commented on here. Could it possibly be letting the wife have her way about everything???
Like you, my first was a train wreck, as she one day decided she didn’t like her daughter and wanted out. A serial cheater. The second marriage was truncated by her sudden heart attack after over 30 years.
I guess it all comes down to how much you are willing to listen and work on things. Lol. Everything needs to be worked on and maintained. Relationships need to have regular services too😊. Can see you two have a great understanding and solid relationship. Love your humour as always!
I just look around me and thank the good lord ; I followed my instincts and stayed single ~ I’ve had a plethora of girlfriends in my life and even got 1 child out of it all ~ thankful for that but marriage … not for me .. an institution that fails more often than it succeeds . don’t mean to sound negative ~ but I value my hard earned dollars.
I just got remarried a month ago, for the 3rd time at the age of 68. My bride immigrated (legally) from South Africa about 5 years ago. What are the odds of the 2 of us meeting & falling in love, after growing up halfway around the world from each other? ❤
True my ex- wife's was her 5th my first ! We got married everything changed with her. We was together a month, I gave up trying after 5 years before filing my divorce papers !😂
My first marriage is kicking ass still after 34 years. My three kids are all doing well too. Just because you’re mentally weak doesn’t mean marriage isn’t a good institution.
I know this is just a joke, and I really hope I’m not being “that guy” but the 50% of marriages end in divorce is a very old statistic that has slowly declined over the last like 40 years. Think it’s as low as 35% end in divorce now
@@christophersmith8316 so if people want to prove me wrong I more than welcome it, but if you’re not gonna provide actual input then your response is pointless and you’re just being a troll
Mike. Admit it PLEASE......YOU married the Most Beautiful Lady in the World. N You and Joelle Are the Happiest Married Couple in the World. So You would say Anything to Placate the rest out there regarding marriage.
I want my marriage lasted 38 years my wife decided is deceased now but we live together all together for 44 years you just have to figure out how to take all the stuff that woman wants to give out and be like I was just live your life on the way you want to live it and love the woman you with
His figures are wrong. That 50% figure includes 2nd and 3rd marriages, and there is a trend towards less divorce over time for first marriages (which is about 40%). And that almost 50% figure for marriages overall is elevated because a subset of the population has a good chunk of the divorces. Either they have difficulty in relationships or have gone through the process so going through it again seems less daunting.
His statistic was wrong. 50% of all marriages end in divorce, not first marriage. That means marriage numbers 2, 3, 4, 5 are also counted in that statistic. Repeat offenders.
Remember, however, >99% of ALL non marriage partnerships fail. So the statistic of how many couples fall apart, is waaaaaay higher. Marriage is basically just a financial contract whereby a man guarantees that he will financially support a woman FOR LIFE. There is no obligation from her in the opposite direction. NONE. Love, honor and obey went out the window hundreds of years ago.
I was talking with 2 of my friends and one just got married and was saying how before they got married they had sex 5 times a week and after the first month of marriage she cut him down to once a week and my other friend said your lucky because she cut me and about 5 other guys off altogether and i spit my drink out my nose
Since the woman stopped saying the proper vows, To love ... honor .... and OBEY!!!! That's why all the failed marriages now ,well, for decades. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
That's because they are not getting married with the Sacramental blessing of the Catholic Church. We need God's grace to survive marriage's difficulties.
That's a "not learning" curve. BTW only about 45% of people who marry get divorced. More than 50% of marriages end in divorce due to the number of people who do it more than once.
And depending on state 80% to 90% of all divorces are started by women and the man is almost always left with nothing and some of the state says the man has to pay up to 75% of their potential invome in allamony and child support.
Not quite sure where the guy who is speaking at his “statistics”, but he is off about first time marriages. They tend to last when it’s unmarried to unmarried but after that, well let’s just say people who get divorced don’t learn how to pick better partners they learn how to get divorced.
Joelle, you look Beautiful in every video/picture y'all post. You are an amazing woman. Mike is a lucky man, you two are an amazing couple, and so funny. Thank you both for the laughs, you 2 always make me laugh when I need it most. I was in a near fatal car accident in March of 2021, I was in the hospital for weeks. I live in pain everyday and it's easy to get depressed when you suffer 24/7. Anyway thank you both for the videos, please keep them coming. ❤🙏

It's a contagious disease called...... MATRIMONUS
There are two winners in a marriage. The attorneys and the minority that last until death
Yeah 3rd marriage for us, 30th anniversary last Sunday sitting alone both with Covid. But we’re still alive thank God..
My first marriage ended in divorce. My second ended after almost 30 years when she passed away.
and?
are you trying to prove anything? 🤔
you are clearly in a minority -> those 40% ..
@@peteroz7332Proving that there is exceptions to the rule. 30 years are “Til Death Do Us Part”. Wouldn’t you agree?
@@samiam619 yes, he's in the minority who didn't get divorce...
difficulties with reading with comprehension? 🤔
Same but mine was 20 years till she died of cancer. We would still be together but for cancer.

Joelle, just too FUNNY!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I realize I don’t even need to get married anymore. I just watch these vids and pretend I am for a few minutes
A few minutes is just about the same length of time that a modern marriage lasts
I just look around me and thank the good lord ; I followed my instincts and stayed single ~ I’ve had a plethora of girlfriends in my life and even got 1 child out of it all ~ thankful for that but marriage … not for me .. an institution that fails more often than it succeeds .

Such pretty house glad yall cam make me laugh and keep it up love yall
I'm not sure but I think they have more then 1? I've seen at least 3 different ones
50% end in divorce...the other 50% end in death.
Love those smiles and facial expressions Joelle❤❤❤
I just love Joelle's reactions
You guys are great, you should have a TV show, love it
Mike is hilarious but gotta sa Joelle's reactions make it enjoyable. Something about her. It's great
Mike Barbiglia is hilarious...
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you two
Mikey got SOOOOO lucky 😊
Been married twice. Never again. Been by myself for 30 + years now. And I'm happy.
He's right ❤
Beautiful honey. He is just one person who doesn't believe. This is funny. ❤❤❤❤
I have to agree with you there , and I have to say that I hit the learning curve! Separated 2years now.
If 50% of parachutes didn't open, NO one would jump!
So you're right!
The moral of this is correct!
I absolutely love JoJo’s huge glasses, especially these square ones!
he's like I'M RIGHT and I KNOW IT
Yep, a learning curve that no one has taken into account.
Took me seven tries to get it right!! Together 36 years now!
He’s the guy with no visitors when he goes into the hospital. His friends would come but they’re all married and on vacation.
I just got remarried a month ago, for the 3rd time at the age of 68. My bride immigrated (legally) from South Africa about 5 years ago. What are the odds of the 2 of us meeting & falling in love, after growing up halfway around the world from each other? ❤
Don't know but congrats!
He’s about to be proven statistically correct
If only we can start with the learning curve... 😂😂😂
The math is math'in! Lol
It’s a process of two people becoming one
She is awesome
Can't argue with that logic...
Ya you even look gorgeous with your glasses on sweetie
A clip from Mike Birbiglia's "My girlfriends boyfriend".
I love her boots
He's right!
Ken t forgot de skol skal 💀
Joelle & Mike his right! Except for one thing, you" two... prove him wrong. By the way that was funny, look at Joelle when she laughs. Happy 2024.
I love watching you and you are so amazing and beautiful ❤
Amazing boots! :-)
100% right.

Nice Christmas tree 🎄
You need to get your wife a silk robe
you: the lotto winner......her: the next 14 lotto's in a row that you WILL win!!!!!!!
and yet I'm on 48 tears...
Revisit your comment...
And forth Marriages have a 85% end in death!!!😮😅😂
Mike. Admit it PLEASE......YOU married the Most Beautiful Lady in the World. N You and Joelle Are the Happiest Married Couple in the World. So You would say Anything to Placate the rest out there regarding marriage.
My second marriage lasted 1 years longer then my first, my third is still going and got my second by 4 years
You can be right or you can be happy
1st wife lasted 1 year, 2nd 2 year and 3rd 42 years
Third time lucky in Southeast Asia
Not my Wife and I. Third time for both and couldn’t be happier. BTW, it’ll be 21 years this June. Thirds times a charm!!
I want my marriage lasted 38 years my wife decided is deceased now but we live together all together for 44 years you just have to figure out how to take all the stuff that woman wants to give out and be like I was just live your life on the way you want to live it and love the woman you with
Right at two months until my wife and I have our fiftieth wedding anniversary. I pity the fools who bale on a fulfilled life.
You keep doing something with the same undesirable results is a sign of Insanity ❤
Is WHY I'm never going to get married again..been there done that, divorced & NEVER RE MARRY AGAIN! > NOPE!

Yea 37 yrs ago I should have ran off the alter !

Well, we know you ran away from the dictionary.
I like yuo ❤❤❤
No it's a commitment issue. Mostly in the U.S. people want a contract (way to get out) vs a commitment (relationship). We are selfish.
Lol 😂
You can either be right or you can be happy but you cannot be both. Better to be alone that to wish you were alone
Or its zero percent when you do it right the first time. 😎
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂

😊😊😊
42% and dropping but people still misquote the divorce statistics and it only high in US
And its not just marriages its bf and gf relationships to that women end first
😂😂😂
I don't really believe in this guy's premise. However. he does make a good point. lol
Note: The majority of divorces are initiated by women Tread carefully 😁
😂🤣
Actually, that sounds like a "failure to learn" curve.
Cute Olive Oil
The only person that loved me died. Nope, marriage is not for me.
50% end in divorce the other half end in death
Since the woman stopped saying the proper vows, To love ... honor .... and OBEY!!!! That's why all the failed marriages now ,well, for decades. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Even men stopped saying the proper vows. Which is why failed marriages happened.
That's NOT IT at all. Do you think there should be obedience? Really?
33% in the first 10 years in the United States.
Google it
Mike. Joelle.... Gonna be honest. For me, the Joelle aspect is superfluous to me. you could be filming a cat taking a dump. Here for the jokes
That's because they are not getting married with the Sacramental blessing of the Catholic Church. We need God's grace to survive marriage's difficulties.
How was your day 💗
That's a "not learning" curve. BTW only about 45% of people who marry get divorced. More than 50% of marriages end in divorce due to the number of people who do it more than once.
marriage is the government giving you permission to live together
If that's a learning curve, I think i've found he problem. People are stupid, after 3 attempts they still haven't got it! lol
And depending on state 80% to 90% of all divorces are started by women and the man is almost always left with nothing and some of the state says the man has to pay up to 75% of their potential invome in allamony and child support.
Dam uour looking good today, lucky man....

I'm against divorce. Therefore I can't get married
Some valid points made there , but when you look at the demographic and then the social values of today it's little wonder.
