The Real Reason People get Divorced is.....

Age gap, which explains why the possibility of true love and a marriage between a PL and a dancer is impossible. If you have a 1 year spousal age gap the divorce rate is 3%; a then year gap and now we're at 39%; raise the gap to 20 years and the divorce rate is 95%. Keep in mind these are people who didn't pay their spouse money to be with them as a way of beginning a romance. Also, explains why my 58 year old wife is someone I will be with forever and why dancers will always be women I see in 15 minute increments.

60-18 = 42. Falling in love with a teenage sex-worker is not likely to lead to an enduring love affair.
I hate to be an ass ski bum.. but what the fuck are you fucking other women for if you're 58-year-old woman is satisfying? did you have an open marriage to begin with or did it just simply evolve into that? and in either case I'm jealous.
I'm assuming high school sweethearts are an exception :P
I had less than a year's age gap with my ex-wife. If I married a stripper half my age, the marriage would probably last a week.
My old lady is about 6 hours older than me. We are going on 20 years of marital bliss.
personally... I think we're not meant to be monogamous in general.
Then the LORD said to Moses, "I will rain down bread from heaven for you. The people are to go out each day and gather enough for that day. In this way I will test them and see whether they will follow my instructions.
In other words flagooner even if men are pigs, a women will stayed married to ya bra if thats what she wants.
Even though my age preference in dating/sex usually sets a very high gap between me and my partner (current boyfriend is 53), the downside of it is generation/cultural differences, so it may be harder to find a lot of common grounds or opinions I see eye to eye on as opposed to someone that is within the same age group as me that I could relate to much better. But that's a part of what making friends is anyway.
I'd much rather learn more or be mentored by a wise old man that's already learned from his mistakes than date someone close to my age range that doesn't know that much more than I do and ends up fucking up alongside with me instead of warning me or keeping me from fucking up. But as far as marriage goes, I never really saw it as a good option with that kind of gap (Then again, I don't like the concept of marriage at all, but that's a different topic) - and I think the statistics shared here kind of reflects that.
