What do you guys think of the drop in divorce rates?

People are getting married later, and less people are getting married, so when people do they're more inclined to stay married. Plus, the largest generation in the country's history (baby boomers) are now old and on their 2nd or 3rd marriages, much less energy now and more likely to be settled down.

The irony of all this is that co-habitation is on the rise, so while the divorce rate is decreasing I'm curious to know how many long term partners are separating and after how long.

Unlike most of this sub im cool with marriage as long as she's exactly what you want, I wouldn't make a single sacrifice on my list for the girl that's going to be my wife. It seems at least to me more people are waiting to get married instead of hopping into a marriage first chance they get.

Married... 1 woman.

Not Married... Many women.

Math is kind of on my side here.
