[quote=Anonymous]This feels like just an anecdote, not something population-wide. If it's true, it's probably a combination of people in IR relationships having to have hard conversations earlier on and that being a strong foundation, and the fact that a lot of the all-white couples you know are from all periods of your life as opposed to the IR (and if you're white, POC) marriages being people you met later, who are in similar SES and life-stages as you. So as an example, I'm white and in an IR marriage. But a lot of white people I know from elementary/middle/high/undergrad are divorced now, not because they married a white person but because they married at 22. (Not all, of course.) I have a good group of close friends that are WOC and their marriage/divorce success rate seems much more closely tied to age of marriage than anything else, just like my white friends.[/quote]
