It is important to know the reasons that are causing trouble in your marriage because only then, you are able to apply and use the most effective method to resolve it. So here, I am going to share with you these 3 reasons you are more likely to get divorced if you fall under these categories.
Reason #1: Tying the knot in your teens
Studies show that the age you get married is one of the most reliable predictors of how stable your marriage is. According to these studies, if you marry before twenty, your chances of getting a divorce is higher than if you get married after twenty.
Reason #2. Your parents or in-laws were divorced
If your parents or in-laws were divorced, the chances of you getting a divorce is high - I mean in the first place, the chances of getting married is less likely too. The risk of getting a divorce is much lower if one of you comes from a happy, intact family. However, divorcing rates increases by a lot if both of your parents had troubles with their marriage.
Reason #3: Cohabiting before marriage
There is a popular belief that living together before marriage will allow you to understand your partner better and ultimately shows you if he or she is the one for you. Contrary to popular belief, living together before marriage actually increases your risk of getting a divorce.
The exception to this is if you were already engaged and were about to be married soon after moving in together.
These are the top 3 predictors of divorce. If you fall under any of these 3 categories, you should be glad. Because now that you know the existing issues of your marriage, you can seek help such as consulting a professional counselor. Meanwhile, it is important to get help as soon as possible. You need to know when and how exactly to identify and solve your marital issues.
