all the whey said:Are you done arguing that you are still married, so staticts in America are wrong?
Is the list things you mentioned just a Red Herring? (Phase 2 of women arguing against statistics or reason.)
However, the things you listed are similar to what I listed that increase the odds of failure of a marriage. For example, in my county the divorce rate is 58%. The risk of divorce is increased approximately 15% if married under 25. (approx. 73% chance of failure) It is possible the things you listed have been studied also. So, obviously the people you listed have a higher chance to get a divorce than straight 58% in my area.
Back to the subject. At no time did I say "All", "foreigngirl", or "Iquisitive's cousins roomate uncle that met in HS and never looked back". I was simply saying that based on most statistics the younger have more of a chance for failure. I know your area's statistics are different than mine. And, I know statistics can vary based on random samples, etc.
no, I am not trying to argue that just because I am still married that the statistics were wrong. My first post to you was ment as a joke anyways. But when we got on the subject...
what is red herring? The list I had was merely just my own observation of what is going on around and what I find as a reason of divorce at a lot of cases. Marrying young maybe not so much, depending on the maturity level and home upbringing
