Who initiates the divorce more often, the wife or the husband?

One might think that 50 percent of the time, a divorce action is filed by the husband, and the other 50 percent of the time it’s the wife who begins the proceedings — or that maybe there’s a small percentage to subtract for the divorces that are somehow filed jointly by spouses who agree that they should part.

It also seems plausible that since the wife’s standard of living often declines after a divorce, women would be less likely to file a divorce action. Conversely, because men more often engage in adultery, it may seem that wives would be more likely to seek a divorce based on their husbands’ conduct.

The reporting of divorce statistics isn’t as complete as, say, the census data collected in the U.S. every ten years. However, several sources have arrived at pretty much the same answer to the question, “who initiates a divorce more often, men or women?”

Two-Thirds of the Time

It’s the wife who files for divorce in about two-thirds of divorce cases, at least among couples who have children. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, the proportion has changed slightly over the years; for example, in 1975, approximately 72 percent of the divorces in the U.S. were filed by women, whereas by 1988, only about 65 percent were filed by women.

The Same throughout the 19th Century

A study reported in the American Law and Economics Review in 2000, "These Boots Are Made for Walking: Why Most Divorce Filers are Women" also showed that more recently, women file more than two-thirds of divorce cases in the US. Even though the individual states’ data vary somewhat and the numbers have fluctuated over time, throughout most of the 19th century about 60 percent of divorce filings were by women.

Moreover, in some of the states where no-fault divorce was introduced, over 70 percent of the divorce filings were by women. Among college-educated couples, the percentage of divorces initiated by wives is a whopping 90 percent.
This kind of affirms my observations and support my beliefs on this issue. Opinions?

Haha the women just got tired of AFC marriages?
Or is it that the men just cheat without filing for divorce? - and the women find out, then the divorce?
Or are AFC men to afraid to file for divorce?


Just some thoughts; while i see what you're trying to say, divorce statistics arent exactly the same as more casual relationship breakups

AFC men are oblivious there is a problem in the marriage then fail to make things right as a result of this - women cheat in frustration, realises there is better options and files for divorce and AFC doesn't know what hit him, doesn't realise his mistakes and therefore doesn't learn from them. I reckon that counts for a fair chunk of those statistics lol

I agree with both of the previous posters.

Does being in a relationship with an idiot, absolve the other partner from morals and ethics though?

Morals, no, Ethics no.

Do morals and ethics mean a woman should spend her one life, of which she will only ever get one shot at unsatisfied and unhappily married to an AFC who is probably inconsiderate or worse abusive and without enough education to even realise there is a problem and then probably sulks if a woman wants to talk about it.

Then again women usually would not say anything and seemingly out of the blue to an AFC ask for a divorce.

Women expect us to have the same ability to read subtle communications but lets face it we just aren't equipped with them. Women have them because its a mechanism they are hard wired with to know when a baby wants to eat or have his dyper changed and when we were living in tribal societies where an alpha male might be a threat to her or other females a threat to her potential ranking in the group hierarchy .

Women should realise twe are different and communicate on obvious ways like saying 'i'm unhappy lets sort this out' but when they do an AFC will usually throw a strop and sulk which is the opposite of rewarding them for the effort making them less likely to make an effort with someone else. Women in general and AF'CS can be idiots like that but P.U.A educates us to a level where we can read women like a book to bridge that gap.

That's what they mean when they say 'communication is key to a healthy relationship'

The breakdown of communication or lack of any to start with leads to unhappiness usually on the woman's part and the AFC will be oblivious and then the result is a divorce. Hence higher rate of women filing for a divorce?

That's my view anyway
