It’s often been reported that dentists have a high suicide rate. While that statistic is suspect, there’s another study recently done that indicates dentist and clergy as having the lowest divorce rates among people ranked by profession. Others who marry for keeps include engineers, optometrists, and podiatrists. On the other end of the spectrum you’ll find dancers, bartenders, telephone operators, and massage therapists with a much higher likelihood to split up. So if you’re looking for love, make sure you look in all the right places!

Those looking for a life of fidelity and loyalty, however, should marry agricultural engineers, optometrists, dentists, members of the clergy and podiatrists.

Dr Michael Aamodt, an industrial psychologist and professor of Industrial and Organisational Psychology at Radford University in Virginia, has invented a formula to work out the likelihood of success for a marriage, based on the percentage of people in 449 occupations who had been in a marital relationship, but were no longer with their spouses.

“To compute the divorce rate for each occupation, we used the following formula: (separated + divorced) divided by (total population – never married).

“This formula yielded the percentage of people in each occupation that had been in a marital relationship, but were no longer with their spouse,” he said.
