Nice question.
Divorce rates (rates vary according to length of marriage)
1st marriage - 50% (40%)
2nd marriage - 65%
Mixed marriages - 40%
Divorce rate with an ML - odds don’t look good.

Note - most of the MLs are Asian so communication is a problem - and even then with a translator you’re back to the “basics” due to the cultural gaps and nuances of the Aussie culture.

Note any ethic group gravitates to the their own ethnic group. Current MLs have extensive ML networks that they remain attached to. How does the song go “always something there to remind me”.

How do you accommodate the past sexual history - HJ, BJ, FS - so for each year of service - 2000/1500/500 - your guess as good as mine!!

An ML is probably supporting an extended family and may want to import family etc

Complexities of life are tenuous at best in a perfect relationship and I guess many here would attest to that - otherwise they would not be here punting and posting in these forums.

And I guess there are those that just survive in a marriage.
