According to the official statistics, 328,4 thousand marriages and 241,1 thousand divorces have been registered in Russia from January to May, 2015. The current rate is 734 divorces for every 1000 marriages (73,4%).
The Russian divorce rate seems to be one of the highest in the world. In 2014 the figures for the same period were 360,6 thousand marriages and 290,7 thousand divorces. So, there is a tendency towards decreasing of the marriages and divorces. People prefer not to tie the knot nowadays because being married makes things worse in case of break-up.
Immaturity and/or parental influence at the moment of getting married are cited by the former spouses as the most frequent (>40%) reason for their decision to divorce followed by the financial problems. The others are infidelity (19%), sexual incompatibility (15%), lack of common interests (12%), marriage burnout (7%) and addictions (7%). The women start divorce process in 8 out of 10 cases in Russia.
Never, ever get married with a russian woman... pretty at the begining, but you will regret it.
ReplyDeleteInteresting statistics!
ReplyDeleteThanks for writing this article. I've never thought or heard that The Russian divorce rate is one of the highest in the world. I hate divorces. It is always such a sad time, you may feel as if you’ll never love anyone as much as you loved your ex-husband or ex-wife.
