| If average lifespan is 77 and average middle age is 38 then most people nowadays are marrying in middle age? |

What does any of that matter OP?
Quit trying to define everything or label it. Just go with it. |

That math doesn't add up.
Media age at first marriage is around 30 in the US, not 38. |

| Google says median lifespan for men is 75 and women is 71. For marriage, it’s 30 and 28. |

| Well divorce rate is pretty high so not sure what percentage of people who get married stay married for most of their lives to the same person for decades. |
