Does that include someone you married the first time and then divorced? As in, I don't know, giving up smoking and then starting again.

mollusque commented on the word deuterogamist
I have a friend who married and divorced the same woman twice. When he started dating again (after the second divorce) he wrestled with the problem of how many times he should say he had been married. We figured it was a fractal number, equivalent to the square root of two, so he rounded it off to one. Therefore, Bilby, I don't think your example qualifies as deuterogamy.

And I always thought deuterogamy was a book in the bible. Or the study of hydrogen isotopes. Or something like that.
