Divorce declining, but so is marriage

http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/...-divorce_x.htm
Divorce is on the decline in the USA, but a report to be released today suggests that may be due more to an increase in people living together than to more lasting marriages.

Couples who once might have wed and then divorced now are not marrying at all, according to The State of our Unions 2005. The annual report, which analyzes Census and other data, is issued by the National Marriage Project at New Jersey's Rutgers University.

The U.S. divorce rate is 17.7 per 1,000 married women, down from 22.6 in 1980. The marriage rate is also on a steady decline: a 50% drop since 1970 from 76.5 per 1,000 unmarried women to 39.9, says the report, whose calculations are based on an internationally used measurement.

It's no wonder more people are only living together and not getting married due to the divorce rates being so high for the ones that do take the plunge!
You gotta take those vows seriously and many don't want to because they can't handle it.

So reading the menu is ok just take it to the house it will pay off in the long run. It takes two working together to make it work and as the years come on the work may get a bit harder but in the end dividends will be good. Good post Pokie.
