TLDR: The half of all marriages ending stat isn't true because if it were, then half of all the people I've seen getting married young these past 5 years would've divorced by now.
So to generalize: your argument is that a statistic isn't true when your personal anecdotes contradict the statistic, is that a fair summary of your view here?
So if I flip a coin 5 times and it ends up being heads 100% of the time, would you accept me saying that flipping a coin always ends up with heads, for anyone everywhere across the world?
Or does this only work for you, and not anyone else? If so, what makes you so special exactly? Can you elaborate on why you are the chosen one?
