I think the divorce rate starkly points in a different direction.

There is no doubt that bad marriages are common. That doesn't mean that true love is rare though. The question of how many of the marriages that do stay together are good marriages is somewhat separate.

The divorce rate is distorted because of those who have many divorces. It's split, also, across class lines.

Marriages between college-educated people are only about 30% likely to end in divorce.
