If we tracked the folks in the US who got married, there is a 4 in 10 chance that we will be able to see them divorcing in due course. That’s what the statistics say. Whatever happened to the virtue of for better or worse, till death do us part? It’s also reasonable to suspect that some of these people are the type who will have no qualms about repeating the act. It’s thus a good idea to be extra careful with people on that count these days.
