[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No waves of divorces here.  We have been married 20+ years and are in our early and mid 50's.  We have had casual friends here and there divorce, but no more than a handful.  In our college group that meets every three years and where we were the last to marry, there have been none.  [/quote]

New poster. Pretty much the same profile for us re: ages, years married, and very few divorces among our friends. We're just a bit older, married a little longer than PP.

Almost everyone we know is longtime married and no divorces. Not even after kids went off to college or launched life after college -- I know DCUM thinks those are prime times for divorces, once the kids are gone....

The only couple we ever have been close to who divorced were in their early 30s at the time and had a toddler. The DH had longstanding issues of mental health and tons of baggage from his family of origin and he probably never should have opted for the marriage-kids-house-career route as he wasn't capable of handling the responsibility and viewed it all as "holding him back." (Never said what from.) No cheating involved there (so they say and I believe them). But I know no one else who has divorced among our "circle" and that one divorce was many years ago now.
