I suspect two big problems are finding a good match and then after that having the personal character to keep the marriage during normal times and times of massive stress.
In my own personal story, my wife was bipolar and we lost are kid due to us both being disabled so lots of prejudice against that. And my wife's bipolar quadrupled from the stress of losing our kid so it was very tough to hold on to the marriage with only me wanting to hold on to it maybe part of the time (the other half we both wanted to hold on to it).
My wife's bipolar meant she was delusional and oversensitive and it's tough to walk on eggshells for such a person, plus also the fact her diabetes affected her mood as much as the bipolar.
But, on the other side, we were both disabled and a big thing was despite massive difficulties we could understand each other at a soul level. We were I guess you could say "of the same kind". So I always loved her and she always loved me, but went thru spells where she didn't want to be with me, nonetheless.
A big problem was persecution from my family because she had slapped my mom during a bipolar episode. So despite my family's middle class wealth, me and her were pretty much disowned.
This has been the biggest issue for me in relationships. They lose attraction to me no matter what I do. This has made being in a relationship for me extremely hard because I always think about the end game with the next person.
I broke it off with the last person that I was seeing because she brought up marriage. I think if I ever start seeing someone, I'm going to make it abundantly clear that they need to be with me for the next 6-10 yrs before we discuss marriage. People put more into the divorce than they do with the entire relationship / marriage combined.
Nope I don't believe so. Most people in polygamy relationships usually consent when the other partner wants to bring another person into the relationship. Divorce isn't always a negative thing, sometimes a person changes after they're married and it turns out they're toxic so the relationship falls apart.

What is the problem with the divorce rate? I think it's healthy to leave a relationship that isn't going to work long-term. If a polygamous relationship is consensual between all parties then it's literally a non-issue and irrelevant to every other relationship out there..
Men are upset that it's more difficult to trap women in abusive relationships.
Agreed. People can live their life the way that they choose as long as they aren't harming others.
