What is the estimated number of years (or months) to erode from "happy" to "we're getting a divorce"?

I've heard there are two reasons people get divorced:
1) People break up within the first five years, in which case they were probably not right for each other.
2) People break up after many years together, in which case they usually experienced some major life change and couldn't cope with it.
So it could take any number of years to "erode" a happy marriage. I'm not sure what the average would be.
