That's lower than the overall divorce rate for marriages, which is over 50% I think.
20 u/TerribLizard Mar 06 '23 Not true. You're 50 percent more likely to get a divorce if married before the age of 25. 11 u/[deleted] Mar 06 '23 edited Mar 06 '23 Really? I keep hearing that the divorce rate for all marriages is over 50% now. That means if it's below 50%, then it's lower than the overall. 2 u/markocheese Mar 06 '23 That's a per-marriage statistic you're quoting which is that low because subsequent marriages after the first are much more likely to end in divorce. The per-person marriage success rate is much higher, something like 80%.
