Married Americans Are More Unhappy Than Ever

the number of Americans who say they’re “very happy” in their marriages has fallen from 68 percent in the early 1970s to 60 percent. There are four types of people who tend to be happiest with the quality of their marriage: those who spend more time at religious centers, people with extreme political views (skewing to either spectrum), those who describe themselves as upper class—and men.

Nobody is over 70%... that's scary.

Sky is always bluer on the other side. With more technology today is gives people more access to see other sides.

That's probably a big factor. "Oh they look so happy and perfect on Instagram" " my life sucks".

White conservative Christian men win again.

I think it has to do more with self entitlement, ideals, and instant gratification of our society today.

Too many women surfing Instagram and Facebook for real. Everybody looks happy when they’re posting how much they love each other on social media. Then you find out that was their last attempt at keeping the marriage together

And I think social media just makes it even worse. Got to keep up with the Joneses who appear so happy on facebook when in reality that's just a facade.

But I thought conservative religious people didn't have better marriages

So crazy people have better marriages

Well I'm not. I've almost been married 24 years, and I'm as happy as I've ever been.

It's because gays have discombobulated the sanctity of marriage, duh

This is depressing

perhaps affairs make people more happy

You know what keeps a marriage together?
A stout chain sunk firmly into the wall.
I know she’ll never leave me.
