Just think you guys are underestimating how many lasting marriages involve cheating or are sexless or other major problems.
Yes a lot of people seem outwardly stable and stay together for the kids so on the outside it looks like a happy marriage. But a lot of those marriages havd stuff going on behind the scenes.
You cannot judge by outward appearances. My marriage looked perfect from the outside too. The bad things that happen are in private. It’s not visible to outsiders looking in. And many times not even visible to one of the spouses who thinks everything is fine while the other spouse is cheating.

But our childhood experiences shape us, you were influenced by your mom and she probably by her childhood. Sad.

I'm sure it's been stated but that's not the whole picture.
That's 50% of ALL marriages, yes... but that also includes second marriages, third marriages, fourth marriages, etc. And we know those are even more doomed to failure.
The point is - First marriages do not have a 50% failure rate. To the best of my memory (I wrote a paper about this once), it's closer to 35-38%, or at least that was true several years ago.
Not that 35-38% is great. But it's not 50%.

Physical abuse is easy to identity but psych abuse or financial abuse can take years to become aware of and by then it is too late.

I have an instagram with a pretty decent sized following. Nothing too crazy, but in the 20k range. Would say I am chad lite. Good face, great body, got the smoldering look down. Not to brag, just setting the scene. I cant tell you how many times I have slid into the DMs of some milf, whose profile is full of pics of her kids and husband, and I get her to do whatever I want. Send me pics, sext me, send me money, come see me, pretty much fall in love with me. My profile has moved over to alot of fitness stuff and they all want me to train them and give them a "mouth workout." lol at marriage

A false conclusion in the 1970s that half of all first marriages ended in divorce was based on the simple but completely wrong analysis of the marriage and divorce rates per 1,000 people in the United States.
It is now clear that the divorce rate in first marriages probably peaked at about 40 percent for first marriages around 1980 and has been declining since to about 30 percent in the early 2000s. This is a dramatic difference. Rather than viewing marriage as a 50-50 shot in the dark it can be viewed as having a 70 percent likelihood of succeeding.

As for till death do us part, why do so many guys die soon after retirement? Could it be the social security laws? That they get more if he is dead or married, but less if he divorces her, so preemptive action?

It seems every guy I know is divorced or never married. A few married ones, but who knows what dynamics they are not telling us about.
The only happy divorced guys I know don't mind paying alimoney. They have had 3 marriages, buy houses for women, and look fondly on each. Well, I know one who did not pay, but he was always broke, or made less than his wife. He thinks I should not worry since his wife did not make him pay. Yet my goal is to make money.

I know one guy who decided to get a paternity test. Negative. He then decided to not sign the birth certificate.
The other guys, at least 3, were either married or already signed. So they knew there was no point in getting a test since it would not change anything.

so then you're left with the women who look and act good but are actually narcissists/psychopaths. you navigate their mind games and manage to weed them out - and then you are back at square one, alone.

When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
