No pun but if you ask NRI parents who spend a few hundred thousand$ on their kids weddings these days, that's what they would say..😉 😛.. I was merely refering to the wedding vows - till death do us apart, in sickness and in health etc and there is no provision for if it doesn't feel right you have a get out jail card too..😊 Defining success is highly subjective and that too in a marriage so the only way we can measure lasting marriage is if it is true to its vows - till death.😊

with u on "support system" point but have seen some instances where this so called support system was the main reason for break-up😊 agree..

I saw a bit of the CNN program Dewey is talking about and the interesting fact they mentioned was divorce rate is lowest amongst educated people marrying late. Ironically divorce rate amongst Indians is higher in the same group.😕

Probably they need to get some chyawanprash... its too tiring to go through the motions of getting a divorce...😆😆😆

And the reason for it being high amongst indians is again Dabur ka chyawanprash....😆

What I think , family interference is much more among desis compare to them which is one of the main causes for higher divorce rate among us
