Average age I see is about 20 plus years.

 

I would say the majority of them are now divorced.

 

The ones whom were closer in age seemed to have a successful marriage.  

Not sure how you come to that conclusion.  Most Phil-Am marriages I am aware of survive at a much higher rate than the average even with the age difference.

How do you conclude this?  Based on the limited information the median would be 10 to 15 yrs.  No other information to conclude anything else. 

Based on my many years of experience

I used to think the same way as you, it seem like Phil-Am marriage last, but you start giving it time and as the couples age they tend to dissolve and having kids don't seem to matter either.

 

I have been with a pretty large group of Phil-Am couple almost 20 years now, I have seen many guy leave the group and be replaced with another guy.  

 

I would say the divorce rate is the about 50% for Phil-Am couples, and last I heard Americans based marriage were 33% divorce rate down from 50% from prior years.

Not for the few thousand I know, majority are still married.

Most people have at least 10 years age difference

Actually, this poll is like, lol, 13 years old.  Someone brought it back from the dead.  So, when it was brought back over a month ago, the new numbers started from 50 pollsters.  So, we have 31 new pollsters.  The new votes are:

 

0-5       9  years

5-10     7  years

10-15   3  years

15-20   7  years

20-25   5  years

 

So, it looks pretty even between 0-10 years and above.  I find it very interesting.  Thanks for taking the time to vote.

I went to our Annual Pool Party get together, it a bunch of pinays who have get together for Christmas, Thanksgiving and Annual Pool party.

 

There were about 12 couple,  as of now it about 50% success rate on marriages lasting based on my 15 years of observation of this group.

 

The latest victim was "Jon" his wife was about 30 years younger, married around age 22 he was 55 at  the time, they have a 6 year old kid and been together about 10 years, Some guy walks into the party smiling, I was thinking he was catering food or delivering food and introduces himself, I said hello and said I am with "XXXXXX", my chin hit the ground I didn't know "Jon" was out of the picture, I knew they were supposed to split up.
