Finds his wife has cheated they will divorce within a year. A woman will divorce 5 years after dd. (these were averages).
Does that sound about right?

What he said.^^^^^
If you want to have a great marriage, you have to be humble enough to ask yourself, "What changes do I need to make?"

I only have anecdotal evidence from this specific forum, but I guess my general impression is that men are actually more likely to stay. Maybe I am assuming that based on the number of women in the S/D forum? But there may be more women on the site, or women may be more active posters, or I may notice my own gender and follow their stories more closely on a subconscious and unintentional level. There are a lot of explanations.
Why are the averages important to you?
Even when every other story you read here feels familiar, each situation and each pair of people is unique - there are rarely generalizations or averages that can help us heal or move forward.

I suspect that SI isn't a true sample - for example many would simply divorce wihouth reaching out for online support. However those 1y and 5y numbers make no sense.
No matter how painful, life either adapts or it dies.
