"Couples that are married for less than 10 years, get divorced more"

It is often believed that the longer the couple has been married the less of a chance they have to get divorced, but that's actually not true. On Monday we visited the State Data Agency in Vilnius and we found out that it is scientifically proven that couples who are married for more than 10 years get divorced more often. This fact surprised all of us, because we're used to believing the other way around.

"Marriage and babies can save relationships."

This is also a common misconception about relationships and families. As Vilius Bernatonis proved us that hiding a problem under a rock and not communicating is not a healthy way of making a relationship last.
