I read some interesting statistics the other day. A survey was conducted in 15 countries asking the question, “Would you marry the same person again? What would you think the answer in general would be? In every single country surveyed, over half of the people responding said they would marry the same person again. Surprised? In China, 83% of the people responding said they would, but it was only 66% in the US. The answers were broken down by age, etc. and they make for fun reading but you have to keep cultural differences in mind. You can find lots of interesting statistics in a lot more detail at Around the World with One Question. And be sure your answer would be yes in 20 years or so by getting pre-marital counseling! Check it out at the Oklahoma Marriage Initiative website.
