The most recent research on this issue came out with a shocking statistics:

Sorry I could not came up with the whole results

However, I knew the following from the result for sure:

The best quality and longest-lasting marriages are people who married early in their life 24-26.

I know the result is against commonsense.

what leads you to believe that they are enduring anything? a good marriage isn't endured or tolerated it's savored.

married at twenty, that was thirty two years ago. I couldn't imagine being any more satisfied with my life. I married the best girl on the planet, I can't believe she even accepted me in the first place and then went on to be such a great friend and partner. you are reading the words of the the most blessed person you will ever know, I'm blessed far beyond that which I deserve.
