Yeah, but that was FAR more likely to happen 30+ years ago since divorce was stigmatized.
Being honest /= having diarrhea of the mouth about every personal detail of a relationship, no matter what the relationship (or in this case fingertips on social media).
Makes me wonder if the OP is the kind of person who blurts out whatever is in his head no matter how outrageous, offensive, or in bad taste all the time... like Jim Carrey's character in the movie Liar Liar. Did he write all over Facebook about his girlfriends parent's fighting? If not, why not? By his own definition he's being dishonest about his relationship with her and her family by not telling the world about it.
Exactly. We obviously will never get into personal lives of people but they can certainly tell lies up the wazoo that allis well with them and there are no issues. . But we will never know

So if you run into someone and ask, "How are you?" and they say, "fine," do you consider them dishonest liars because they didn't regale you with stories about their insomnia and their idiot boss and their car troubles?
I'm not sure how that applies in any way to couple today, who tend to view marriage more pragmatically and are less likely to rush into it at a young age. Then again, I am of the viewpoint that an amicable divorce isn't the worst thing that can happen to a marriage; it's much better for all involved than a miserable marriage.
Exactly to that also. Some people will not take the chance of divorce because of jeopardizing children, financial being or spouses parents

Well like I said , yes I agree that the divorce rate went down but remember divorces have not went away completely. And people can stay married and not divorce because they want to avoid financial risks and for the sake of there are children involved. There are for sure couples who don't divorce but stay feeling miserable in the marriage or they live a co existant marriage where there are just strangers living in the same house
True and that is why sometimes you can't trust even your own partner in a relationship. They say that they are honest but are they truly?
