There’s no FUCKING way the divorce rate is this low. Virtually everyone I’ve ever known who has gotten married has been divorced and/or had their kids taken away from them. Even the newlywed couples I’ve heard the idea of divorce breached even within the first year.The only couples I’ve known who were actually separated by death are people’s grandparents. The youngest couple I’ve seen stay married until death would be well into their 70s by now.
>>541420795K. Keep me posted.
are you stupid? the graph meana 50% of married couples get divorced
>>541420975Yeah I think it’s much higher than that. 50% after what? 1 year? 3 years? If it were extrapolated over 20 years I think it would be 80-90%
>>541420795Someone earlier looked at this chart and said "the divorce rate is 4%" without understanding the rates become cumulative over a lifetime, because you are not just married for 1 year, you are married for 20+ years>>541421031It's 30-40% over a married couple's lifetime, you can double check with AI or google.
>>541420795I figured it out: your chart is divorces for every 1000 people. Not married people.If you chart it as per every 1000 married women instead, its much higher.Take a second to think it through, its a confusing stat.
>>541420795I know a guy about to get married for the fifth time
>>541420795imagine inviting uncle sam into your personal affairs
>>541421098It’s bound to go higher then. It’s probably skewed by boomer and greatest generation data.
>>541421031You're the one who posted it you retard, what does your source say?
>>541420795weird, every married couple I know is going strong.you probably live in a poor area.
>>541421250I needed an image for the OP, I’m saying I don’t believe the data>>541421253You’re not even in America
>>541421203As you can see from the chart you posted yourself, it's on a steady decline.So no, it's probably not going higher. Most likely it will continue it's decline.
