Interesting data at that link.

As i was reading thought the thread, and saw someone mention that “even marriages from the 70s ended up in divorce” I was thinking how the sexual revolution peaked in the 70s, so that is not at all surprising.

the data you linked supports that conclusion.

I lived against the grain. Lived with my semi-hippie college girlfriend from 1971 to 1981. We got married and lived happily married ever since. Raised two great kids (Born AFTER 1981, and on purpose, LOL!) who are in their early and mid-20’s, who successfully completed college and are working professionally.

This story has to be the absolute infinitesimally rare case from that era of relationships. I don't regret at all how it turned out. I certainly don't recommend it to anyone either. It doesn't exactly jibe with my Christian beliefs or practices. I can only guess that in some way I don't understand, my wife and I have been blessed.
