Life is complex enough for there to be
more than one reason why couples who live together are more likely to divorce; and why divorce rates increase, in general.
Including personal experiences and opinions, there are thousands of qualitative and quantitative studies about cohabitation and divorce around the world, including those conducted by Melissa S. Waters and Rand Westler; Michael Svarer; and John Zhao and David Hall. People who are interested can check these and other studies out and see how these different explanations mesh with their humble (personal) opinions.
