I certainly don't think so. I've never been married but I imagine that one has much higher hopes and wishes in a marriage than in a relationship. One tries much harder, puts everything out there, lets the other person totally and completely into their life. Regardless of how many times they've had their hearts broken in the past, this time they think "wahow, this is it".
I think divorce scars people a whole lot more, it impacts much more a person, all the riends, the two families. IT's a failure. That's how I see it.
I know, one person can really be inlove and have this incredible relationship and have high hopes and all... marriage is much more than that. IT's actually letting inside your life this person, officially, socially, emotionally, it implies sharing everything from a house, to debt, to children, to vows.
My 2 cents.
