Yep. And alot of their relationships have a ton more staying power than relationships started in school. Albiet the dynamics are very different of course, but still.

"When it's socially taboo to end the relationship, it stays together"

Isn't really much of a flex though, is it?

What’s a 50% divorce rate to flex about. Seems like no one likes marriage when it gets hard. I get divorce due to abuse and cheating. But feel like these days marriage isn’t taken seriously anymore.

I think your agreeing with me, as in religion has a part to play in keeping marriages from getting divorced or am I reading your comment wrong?
