Divorce lawyers have pointed to Facebook and internet porn as being increasingly common causes of divorce. According to articles I’ve read, a typical thing that happens to (non-frum) people is that a married man will notice an old flame from high school or whatever on FB, and become “friends,” and communicate a bit, and this will lead to actually meeting and committing adultery. I’d be surprised if it’s a common cause of divorce among frum families. And I’m not sure it’s really true that divorce is increasing among frum Jews.
