ANYONE who is going to get married should take a hard look at their relationship and motivations.
As for the stats...if we all just said "screw it, I guess im not gonna get married" just because their was a possibility that we would get a divorce, no one would get married (well ... almost no one)...
About overall divorce stats :
I think divorce rates are high now for a lot of societal reasons. I think the biggest one has to be that women work now, and are no longer bound to their husbands for survival...therefor if theyre not happy, they get out.
There isn't as much of a social stigma attatched to getting divorced..its just more of an accepted practice.
Id really like to see a study done about how many couples didnt get married because they lived together first. That could be a lot more people counted among the divorced.
