Do audiophiles have a high divorce rate?


Somebody told me yesterday that a study that looked at personality traits of people who got divorced found that people who were picky and difficult to satisfy were over-represented in the divorce population.

That got me thinking: picky and difficult to satisfy -- that doesn't sound like any of us, does it?

From your observations, do you think that audiophiles might have a higher divorce rate than the general population because of certain personality characteristics?

Just hoping my hypothesis is wrong.

In two week, my wife and I will have been married for 19 years. All of my audiophile friends have been married for a long time. The only ones not married are unfortunately widowers. A lot of my friends have gotten divorces over the years, just none of the audiophiles.
 USA stats show the group with highest divorce rate are Sailors in
the US  Navy !  Dad not home much.
In all branches a career is initial 4 years and 6 years after that.

Even though I'm divorced twice Being a Audiophile had nothing to do with it .LOL....
If being picky extends from your audio preferences to traits you want from a partner, then maybe...
sometimes divorce happens when you’re not picky enough
also, i think audiophiles are problem solvers as long as they don't buy snake oil they do well with other problem solvers not problem deniers.
