It is easy to divorce when getting married

Women's hesitation when deciding to marry is an omen of an uncertain marriage life in the future.

'People often say that everyone feels nervous before deciding to marry someone and you don't have to think much about those concerns. But we found that brides were reluctant before the wedding to face the risk of marriage breakdown 2.5 times higher than brides who did not feel hesitant , ' Justin Lavner , a doctoral student at the University of California in the US, said.

Lavner also affirmed that for couples who live more than 4 years, the level of satisfaction of couples who have never hesitated before the wedding is much higher than those who have been wondering.

To draw that conclusion, Lavner and his colleagues studied 232 couples in Los Angeles, USA in the early months of family life. In the first interview, the team asked the study participants: 'Have you ever felt uncertain or hesitated when deciding to get married?' . 47% of men and 38% of women say they feel confused.

For the next four years, they met these couples once every six months. They found that, although the proportion of husbands who felt hesitant was higher than their wives, the attitude of women was a more reliable base to predict the sustainability of marriage.

Results showed that 19% of women and 14% of men who were hesitant before the wedding were divorced after 4 years. In contrast, only 8% of women and 9% of men do not hesitate to bid farewell to their partners.

Divorce rate of couples that both don't feel confused is 6%. Conversely, that number is up to 20% in couples where both people feel unstable.

The research team believes that everyone should resolve all worries before deciding to live in a home.

'If you see an abnormal sign on your skin, will you ignore it or see a doctor? Be wise and don't ignore it. You should not ignore the doubts. When you feel puzzled, you should talk to your future partner and see how the story goes. Many people think that all worries will vanish when two people contribute money to buy houses and raise two children, but in reality they often don't happen that way , 'said Thomas Bradbury, a research team member .
