Could A Shorter Commute Save Your Marriage?

How long is your commute to work? If it's longer than 45 minutes, according to this study you're 40% more likely to get divorced.

Why the steep rise in divorce rates due to a long commute? I'm sure there are a number of reasons, but here are a few theories:

1. One partner may have to take a job closer to home.
2. Time is the glue that holds relationships together.
3. The money is rarely worth it.
4. Long commutes are stressful.
