One.. and only one.. If your wife / Husband dies.. Thats it (Big misstake from Beth if you ask me).
So you really cant divorce her, not by talking nor by an arrow in the head.. (I tried)

So pretty much as in real life

Just one.

The Iraqi release of the game allows multiple wives however.

As much as I kind of appreciate that our characters aren't just ****ing over all the men and women of Skyrim, keeping spouses secretly in different cities and going on long "business trips," it does seem silly that they can't re-marry after their spouses accidentally die of an arrow to the head.

I heard that you can remarry if your wife dies of natural causes, ie if you are not the murderer. Though I haven't tried it myself.

If you get bored of your wife, get her to change houses back to her original place. Then follow her while she walks to the new house, eventually she will encounter some type of enemy which will kill her. Then after a few days your inheritance turns up and you should be able to remarry.

"Do you, Ming the Merciless, take this human, Dale Arden to be your wife of the hour...

Of the hour, yes.

Not to blast her into space...

(Warning look from Ming)

...uh...until such time as you grow...weary of her.

I do."

Really? Couldn't you just Thu'um her off a cliff then?

I think that would count as a murder, since Unrelenting Force does a small amount of damage. Last person who damages a character that dies gets the murder.

No wonder the divorce rate is high here in the US.

I don't mind having only one wife if at least she slept in my bed rather than in the basemant bedroll at my house in solitude. Lol, that is so crazy. :facepalm:

Hey, June and Ward Cleaver slept in separate beds. Makes sense to me :whistling:

Lol I cant help wondering if that's a bug or a feature. Do Skyrim men treat their wives as second class citizens and expect them to sleep on a basemant bedroll? Or is is it just that quirky radiant AI rearing its ugly head again. No way to know I guess haha.
