 If you are in a serious relationship, here are some specific suggestions for you and your partner to consider:
- Don't rush into marriage. The average age of a person in America when they get married is now about 26 years old. In general, the older a couple is, the greater the chance that their marriage will go the distance.
According to the National Center for Health Statistics, 59% of first marriages between couples who are years of age or younger end in divorce within the first 15 years, while only 35% of marriages between couples
who get married at the age of 25 or older end in a divorce within that same time period. A few years makes a big difference.
