Immediately I got married, I went through a Study book with my wife entitled "saving your maariages before it begins" and would reccommend it to anyone who is serious on getting married and staying together.
2.Other reasons for problems in marriages include miscommunication, different love languages, too sensitive or insensitive, finances, in-laws, co-workers, friends, behaviours etc
3. Other reason is rushing into marriages when we are not psychologically prepared, overexpectations, high or low self image of one-self or spouse
The bible says that "unless the Lord builds a house, the builders work in vain". We need God's help and strength in every aspect of our lives - whether married or single.

I totally throw my weight behind u. Problem is this they call statistics. Christians especially in the western world have not shown any difference in this commitment. You are already aware they wed/divorce and wed/divorce and wed/divorce till u lose count.
