And I would suspect a number of factors contribute to the decline. As the articles indicates, people are older and perhaps more in tune with what they expect from marriage. Additionally, the social norms have re-adjusted so that people don't marry unless they believe the relationship is positive and sustaining.

No matter who you are divorce is a solution to a unfortunate problem in the relationship and not something to aspire to.
