High Divorce Rate in the United States

[Blaster]

The divorce rate in the USA is much higher than the divorce rate worldwide. I wonder why a country with such a strong economy like ours should have so many divorces.

Revealing Divorce Statistics In 2025

The decision to end a marriage is deeply personal, but there are some widespread factors that weigh into the decision. For example, you’re more likely to divorce if you have divorced friends. And you’re less likely to divorce in Louisiana than in Nevada. We’ve combed through research from the U.S. C

Too much Reality TV, lack of faith in G-d and our vows. I took my vows so seriously that I suffered from the abuse.\

I assure you it's very high in Canada too, especially big cities like Toronto. The expectations from women are too high I think, while men can't continue to love their wives as they age. Neither are good for the soul.

Women don't understand how much pressure men suffer from a young age especially if their dads were overbearing etc. It's almost as if we can't be human and women look for men for what they can provide, not who they are. For men, it's about how a woman looks. I don't personally subscribe to that, but it is the general idea.

I can't tell you how many divorced women over 50 or even 60 whose profiles are them trying to look attractive, most with kids, some young (if the profile is someone in their 30s or 40s) and they demand so much of men just in their profiles.

If people don't connect emotionally and spiritually, nothing is going to overcome that and assure a loving, lasing marriage.

Another sign of a poor economy... couples fight over money more than anything else....

Find me a steady rolling woman from Texas or Florida, maybe even California. If they want to have kids I'm game as I'd still like to leave next of kin. I will even give you a finders fee

Though the prospect of another marriage scares me and may be a barrier for me going forward.

Money and sex, in that order, is what I lead read years ago as being the 1 and 2 primary reasons for divorce.

Getting married for the wrong reasons mostly.

The divorcees I dated complained about a lack of interest from their former spouses.

I was in the military and was gone a lot while our kids were small... so I blame myself for my divorce but we are still best friends today... and I am still a part of her family and a good friend of her husband... he is a great guy... I visit her mom more than she does because she lives in my town... lol
But would I ever get married again... doubtful... I like my freedom and independence....

I am whining by explaining the current realities of online profiles in dating?

If you want fluff instead of fact, don't read my posts.
