The divorce rate is remarkably higher in the United States compared to India because of two main factors, law and culture. In India, arranged marriages are the norm compared to that of the United States where, when of legal age, anyone is free to marry or conduct relations with any other human of age. When marriages are arranged, the couple has their entire childhood to grow up and to become fond with their counterpart. Years of hard work are spent on building the relationship to reach maximum satisfaction between both parties. While in America, the average time between dating, engagement, and marriage is significantly shorter. This absence of time lost can cause friction and disturbances in the future. Americans tend to fall to lust rather than deep, meaningful, passionate love. Culture also plays an important part in the divorce rate in both contries. The people of India are cultually strict and many rights of woman are non existant. Americans tend to be quite more relaxed culturally and spiritually.

In the last sentence you say that we are culturally relaxed, and though I agree I must ask what is the culture of America?
America is a fast food society. We run off of instant gratification. If I want new socks, I don't have to learn how to sew, pick the cotton, and make socks. I can mosey on down to Wal-Mart and purchase a new pair. This "fast food" effect has poured over into several aspects of our culture. Or at least what is left.
