The Law

According to old Kentucky folklore, a woman can marry the same man three times, but a fourth trip down the aisle with him is strictly forbidden. The law was allegedly intended to prevent constant, frivolous legal annulments and divorces from clogging up the county courts. It seems that in the eyes of the state, it is three strikes and you are legally out of love.
