I thought divorce rates were declining in recent years due to fewer people getting married?

I'm in every divorce thread to say:
Best damn thing to happen to me and my kids. They deserve to see me happy and to not be a witness to continuous arguments over BS. But my ex was/is a pill-popping, heavy drinking POS cheater and thief.
Sometimes escape is good!

The idea of another man holding and playing with my children while I'm out of the picture would infuriate me more than what he was doing in bed with my wife.

What’s the percentage for first marriages?
The average first marriage that ends in divorce lasts about 8 years. Women leave men 80 % of the time. And if they’re college educated, it’s 90 %. One of the number one predictors of divorce is actually if the woman out earns the man.
2 out of 3 marriages will make it to their 10th anniversary, but only 1 out of 3 marriages will make it to their 25th anniversary. 67 % of second marriages end up in divorce. 73 % of third marriages end up in divorce.
Having friends who are divorced increases your risk of divorce. People are 75% more likely to end their marriage if a friend is divorced. The marital stability within a couple's social network also play a role in whether their union lasts. Having friends who are divorced can greatly increase your chances of becoming divorced yourself, according to a research team from Brown University.

Could be true. I think it depends on which study is most recent and which one you believe to be more accurate.

There's no reason to think long term marriage rates will improve and there's every reason to think they'll get worse.

Cool story bruh. He's probably a dick and blames feminist for all his problems and thinks a woman belongs in the home and should devote herself to making her husband happy and has enough of that shite.

56 % of marriages end in divorce. That is the ones that end in divorce. What percentage stay together for the kids? Or stay together because they don’t want to give away half their shite?

Quite possibly the biggest reason I'm still married. I could live without seeing and talking to my wife. Sometimes I prefer it, but having to pay money to not see my kids just isn't sound logic to me. If my wife ever files for divorce, I'll sign the papers, but for me to file, she'd almost have to legitimately try to kill me. She already wastes all of our money, I work 2 jobs and never get any, but at least I get to see my daughters every day.

I got a buddy that pays nothing. And now she is sueing him for full custody. Bitch can't tie her own shoes. She is gonna find out she failed as a parent. Known both since high school. He made a bad choice and has since gotten a great girl in place. The ex is just jealous nobody wants her cheating arse

Damn baw.
My wife and I have a good marriage, but if we ever did get divorced I wouldn't get married again.
I can see trying marriage twice if I had a brief 3 year marriage when I was young or something, but after 21+ years I wouldn't be willing to start over again.

Baw, you need to put a stop to that. It's 100% in your realm of control.

Sex or money? If it's sex, maybe she's taking cruises to the Bahamas and getting boinked by Bembe, their version of Tyrone or Jody.

At a point, maybe the problem is you and not the partner.

I’m thankful that I have zero friends who have been divorced. I honestly think none of them would go through with it even if they wanted to because they wouldn’t want to be the first in our social circle to be “that” couple
ETA: I’m also pretty sure that I read something a while back that stated that college educated folks get divorced at a much lesser rate than the uneducated.

Don’t know the why to the divorce proceedings. I was more just thinking about how fricking much it would suck to get divorced with kids.
As someone who got divorced when mine were 4&2 I can concur that in fact does suck..

Mrs. Tantal has terminal cancer and isn't likely to last too much longer. Once she's gone, I'll probably be 51, at most. Plenty of time left to start over, but I won't for two reasons. #1-Once you're used to driving a Ferrari, it would be hard to slide into a clapped-out old Dodge. #2-I'm in an excellent financial position now and refuse to risk it.
That's what my uncle did. His wife died of cancer in her 40s and later when he got a girlfriend, he flat out told her marriage was a one-time thing for him but she was welcome to hang around as long as she wanted provided she understood that he would never marry again. She accepted the deal and they lived together happily unmarried for over 20 years until he died. I guess you can't break something that doesn't exist.
