The US Bureau of Vital Statistics last estimate (from 2005) puts the divorce rate at: 0.38% per capita* or 0.76% per capita* (corrected). This "Per Capita" estimate includes non-married people as well however and gives a low number because non-married people do not get divorced / newer studies only offset new marriages against new divorces. The 'real' numbers are a lot higher: 40% to 43% of all marriages end in divorce per the last estimate by the US Census bureau (This estimate has been accepted by statistics as a truer representation than VS records).

It is too soon to obtain accurate statistics. However, same sex marriage encounters exactly the same successes and problems as opposite sex marriage. That includes stable and loving marriages, divorces, spousal abuse, etc.
