The so-called “no-fault revolution” has resulted in marriages in the US lasting an average of 11 years. Used to be much harder to obtain divorce, and quite often the only legitimate grounds were things like adultery, abandonment or suchlike.

“no-fault revolution”

Funny you should mention that. Our secretary was talking once and commented, “I probably shouldn’t have divorced my second husband so quickly, and I may still try to get back together with him sometime but right now he is married.”

Almost like saying, well, ‘I know he’ll be divorced again and I’ll be divorced again so if we are both divorced at the same time maybe we’ll try again’. I swear it is just as if they are talking about a time share condo or a car lease.
