such as the divorce rate being 50% ? IT IS NOT 50% !!!!!! That statistic was made based on THIS YEARS marriages and divorces, not ALL marriages and divorces. IF you take ALL marriages and ALL divorces, the rate os only 2-3%.One could easily say that less people got married this year !!!!! When will people stop perpetuating the lie ? When they finally get over there own relationship ineptitude ?

Well yeah I sort of agree and sure it depends on how many people got married in the year of the survey or whatever, but still a lot of people do get divorced.

they are not perpitrating a lie... its actually gone up... almost 60% now in the U.S. also the number rises if there has been a live in arrangement before the marriage...sadly... it would be great if it wasn;t true.. however it is... the sadder thing is we see the numbers for all the bad relationships and divorces and there are never any stories on the great families and couples that do work out.. they are definately out there... you just have to look a little harder!
