1. Your parents’ relationship
Have you thought about how your parents´ relationship influences your life? Researchers have found out that if your parents got a divorce when you were a child, you have a 50% higher chance to get a divorce too. If you are a woman and your parents got a divorce, this chance is even higher- 60%.
When you are a child, and your brain is still developing. The things that you faced when you were a kid are forever printed in your mind. For this reason, if your parents got a divorce before you were ten years old, you have a 90% chance of getting a divorce.
2. Your previous marriage
If you have been married before and got a divorce, you have a higher risk of divorcing your second marriage too. In fact, the risk for your second marriage ending in divorce is 67% and third- 73%. These numbers are quite astonishing.
It only shows that most people are not able to learn from the mistakes of their previous relationships. It is typical for most people to follow the same relationship patterns. Also, people who have gone through one divorce know how it feels. In most cases, they know that they can go through it and have less fear of doing so.
3. Your relationship with your father
People who have a bad or nonexistent relationship with their fathers have a higher risk of getting a divorce. If a child has a strong and constant relationship with their father until ten years of age, they will grow up to be happy and successful adults. The ones who don’t have a good relationship with their fathers usually have trouble later in life. Mothers also play a role in their children´s future relationship. Children of a strong and influential mother, even if she is single, have a better chance to develop strong relationships in the future.
4. You have money issues
Money has a lot of influence on relationships. Turns out, if the wife is earning more than the husband, there is a high risk of divorce.
Researchers have found out that if the wife earns 60% more than her husband, the risk of divorce doubles. Also, if you often fight about financial issues, it can also increase the probability of divorce. Specifically, if you fight about money at least once a week, your risk of divorce increases by 30%.
5. Influence of the age
Age of you and your partner influences how successful your marriage is going to be. If you have gotten married before the age of 25 years, you have a higher risk of divorce. Couples who get married in their early thirties have better chances of staying together.
Also, the age gap plays a role in marriage. Usually, there is no significantly higher risk of a divorce if the man is older than the woman. But if it is the other way around, the risk increases severely. If the wife is three or more years older than her husband, the risk of divorce increases by 50%.
