Neighbor insisted I use a specific type of wood glue for my porch bench

My neighbor Bill, who builds birdhouses every weekend, told me to use Titebond III for a bench I was making for my front porch. He swore the waterproof rating was way better than anything else. I ignored him and used the cheap stuff from the hardware store, and now after three months of rain, the joints are all coming apart. Has anyone else had a project fail because they skimped on glue?

Honest question, does your bench live outside in a hurricane or something?
