Quick Concepts

  1. Don't be committed to your marriage, be committed to your spouse.  This is a small, but significant, perspective shift that means that you are pro-actively loving your spouse, instead of just surviving.

Statistics

80% of the "very unhappy" (their term) couples who stayed together were "happily married" (their term) 5 years later.

19% of divorcees were happy 5 years after their divorce.

-- Linda West, Sociology Prof at University of Chicago, "The Case for Marriage"
