It takes a long time to get to know someone, man or woman. Everyone is programmed differently. Initially everything is great but eventually the spark fades.

All the happy relationships between two people I know are common law marriages. Legal marriages tend to ruin relationships and end up in divorce.

Beliefs that marriage is in crisis and couples are quitting due to difficulties may have different cultural, social, and psychological roots. One can make some inferences as to why people might feel discouraged about salvaging their marriages today.
Social Changes
Shift in Values: Marriage is much less regarded as indispensable, and sacrifices are considered unnecessary. Choosing happiness and seeking it outside the marriage institution has become easier.
Increased Acceptance of Divorce: There are not too many people who still regard divorce as a shameful thing. Instead, it is regarded as a resolution to a broken relationship.
Communication Breakdown
Lack of Effective Communication: Most couples cannot understand each other, leading to a relationship breakdown and unresolved problems. Unfortunately, when one doesn’t have the right communication tools or skills, it is often simpler to end the relationship rather than resolve problems.
Digital Distractions: Technology and social networking are also making interaction harder, which does not help deepen the connection between the partners.
Unrealistic Expectations
Romantic Ideas: Movies and other forms of entertainment often portray love and weddings in a more idyllic fashion than they are, providing a latter-day fairy tale. Hence, when the two individuals come together, and the fantasy engine does not work, they become less interested in further investment.
Instant Gratification: In this modern world, many people interpret an easy and quick “solution” to a problem as the most practical rather than working hard in enduring long-term ways.
Stress and External Pressures
Causal Economic and Social Factors: Money, job loss/breakdowns, and social instability can weaken friction between two people in a marriage. The couple is probably already stressed and will be less likely to resolve any tensions in their relationship.
Observance of Mental Health Issues: For some, the growing shift toward better self-care and understanding of mental health is a positive outlook; however, this may also result in someone completely ignoring their, often, relational obligations in favor of themselves.
Lack of Support Systems
Dwindling Support from the Community: In a relationship, traditional sources of support, particularly family and other people, might play less of a role in assisting couples with their challenges. Without such backing, partners feel alone in the marriage therefore tend to quit more easily.
Stigma Associated with Professional Help: Therapy was considered taboo some time back, but it’s quite the opposite now; such views on counseling are still common, and many avoid seeking help when they require it.
Personal Growth and Identity
Emphasis on Self: Self-congratulation for qualities or goals achieved has taken over, and emphasis on self-development is in vogue. This can shift focus away from marriage as more is put into preserving one’s collective greatness than the marriage itself.
Personal Growth: A marriage may not develop one’s capabilities for such people, which would make divorce desirable.
The view that marriage is being attacked reflects other changes and tensions in society. Many reasons are cited for why couples may call it quits. Still, couples can better manage their relationships with clear communication, reasonable expectations, and a strong support network. Promoting a culture that fosters commitment and hard work in marriage would also be important.

Over 50% of marriages eventually end in divorce. Marriage is not for the weak at heart. You go out with your buddies on a Friday night and end up getting laid, you are literally fucked
Divorce, child support, you end up losing your home, your credit will be shot, and your finances are upside down and in chaos. Stay single but you can still have a common law commitment with a significant other.
