Yes, Endlessly, but it doesn't say how many people in each category are happy. If people should get divorced they should get divorced, not stick it out because they share a common faith and "We're going to make this work for God." which is exactly what I've seen a lot of deeply religious couples do. Staying married doesn't mean you "win". Often it just means you've "settled".
I suppose the secret is marrying the right person in the first place. I do like that the Catholics and some other faiths require the couple to go through "training" before the wedding. For older, more experienced couples it may not be neccessary and, in fact, can often be overly intrusive, but it's important for very young people to udnerstand the gravity of what they're about to undertake. Outside of a church community two kids who think they're going to live on air and kisses rarely get sober guidance like that.
I have too much to say about marriage in general that I'd rather keep to myself, but I will say this -- you'll know it's right when you care more about "Us" than about "You" or "Her".
As for Dee's vomitous rant about what a "ho" is, and other posts -- what you don't know about women could fill the Library of Congress twice over.
