Recent studies have shown that a large percentage of people who get married are divorced within the first 2 years of the marriage. I will discuss some of the main reasons why these marriages have been unsuccessful.

Rushing into marriage

All too often people will get married without taking ample time to get to know their partner. There are many people who have gotten married to someone after knowing them for less than six months. This is simply not enough time to decide whether or not you are interested in getting married to someone. After most of these couples get married they realize that they are not compatible so they will end the marriage.

Getting married to a person who has a serious problem

There are many people who will get married to their partner knowing that they have a serious problem. This problem can be an alcohol problem, drug problem, or an infidelity problem just to name a few.

In many cases someone will get married to someone who has one of these problems with the assumption that things will get better after they are married. However, many studies have proven that these personal problems do not get better, sometimes they get worse.

Most of these marriages will end within the first 2 years of the marriage when the person realize that their partner's problem has not been resolved since they have been married.

Getting married for the wrong reason

We all know that money can't buy happiness but sometimes people try to convince themselves that they will be happy if they have a large amount of money at their disposal. There are many people who will get married to someone because they are rich. These marriages are usually short lived because shortly after the wedding this person will end up being extremely unhappy.

Getting married because of an accidental pregnancy

These are people who get married because the woman accidentally got pregnant. Most of these people get married because they believe they are doing the right thing for the baby, not because they are in love.

The majority of these marriages usually end in divorce because many of these people are not compatible. However, they do not realize this until after the marriage because they rushed into the marriage without really getting to know each other.

It's a known fact that couples who date for at least 2 years before getting married have a significantly higher chance of having a successful marriage.
