It's 50% as far as i know. I agree with you about not getting married, i have been with the same girl for over 10 years and we have two children but we are not married, and we have no plans to become married. All marriage turns out to be anyways is the community's o.k on your relationship, i for one could care less if we ever tie the knot, we are as happy as can be without being married.

The sad part is 65 percent of marriages fail. Of the remaining only half r happy. Of the half that say they r happily married one third lie. Men apparently are happier married with children than woman by a half. SO if your female the odds of being happily married is against ya.

NOTE to sincity usa....
If you split with your g/f and she gets the kids...she can put them up for adoption without your consent. Until you are married the courts consider children to be "her kids" and you will have to PROVE you are the father. Very tough to do if she keeps the kids away from blood tests.
This goes for all you guys who want to milk the goat you do not own.....the milk often switches to the one with the greener grass!

well we look at this countrys divorce rate its very disterbing. i for one it makes me sick to my stomach. people seem to think that when marrage gets hard they should run and get a divorce. why not just try working on it. but no instead of putting the hard work into it that might fix it they would rather just take the easy way out that is so sick and sad and heart breaking. to me it makes me wonder if marrage means anything anymore it sure does not look like it does mean anything. maybe they should either make marrage harder to get out of until u show proof that you have done all u can to try and save it like they should make you prove you went to marrage counsling and if they counsler signs off and thinks divorce is in or ok fine atleast you both tryed to work it out u put the effort in to work at it. but maybe marrage should just be thrown away all together. why get married if it means nothing at all in this country. some here might disagree with me on this and that is fine. its just how i feel i mean look at the news on tv or radio or on the net or in news paper and there are not many days that go by you do not hear of someone getting a divorce. it looks to me like marrage is turning into a joke and its sad. marrage was never meant to be a joke marrage is for people who love each other. but in order to make it work ya have to put the work in it a relationship is not easy there will be problems. and if ya think its a live happley ever after your living in a story book world thats not how it works. either this country needs to fix marrage or get rid of it. marriage is way to easy to get out of today. we need to make it harder to get out of. when you make a commitment like marriage you took on a big responsablity with work to be put into it. but today that commitment seems to look like a joke.
