What about the OT? You guys make marriage sound like a scam created by females to take money from hard working baws while taking the bbc when he is in the field.

How many of you guys have been divorced? Ofc need to be married beforehand

Based on the last time I saw this come up, a bunch of people will be in here soon to tell you the stats are wrong. And only trashy people get divorced.

We make 6 years Easter Sunday. What's alarming are the number of divorces after 20+ years of marriage.

Marriage is supposed to be a great thing and is when you have the right partner. It's one of the most important decisions of your life....

We should figure out a system to be "single" one weekend a month. That would drive divorce rates down drastically.

The divorce rates in the US has never reached 1 in 2 marriages.

You can't take the # of new people getting married and compare it to the divorce rate and claim that 50% of all marriages end in divorce


The rate of people who have married and then divorced has never exceed 41 percent.

I believe that technology has hindered the probability of finding the right one. Many people go through so many relationships these days and end up settling

it's also in the wording

these two statements are not the same

50% of marriages end in divorce

50% of people who get married, get divorced

This seems contradictory. Wouldn't one be more likely to settle pre-technology, when the prospects were more limited to people you knew IRL and within close proximity?
