Marriage is a big thing, it is like starting a new life.
So it is very important to know the person to whom you are getting married.
In my point of view, love marriage is a better option as we get to know the partner more deeply, understand each others feelings emotions, goals.
After all you have to live with that partner not with your family so it is really crucial to know each other before getting married.

Marriage is just a legal, social contract. If a couple is truly understanding and loving of each other and wants to live together, there shouldn't have to be a legal obligation involved to do so. But unfortunately, that's not how our society has evolved.

Be it arranged or love marriage, people can grow apart.

In an arranged marriage, one is bound into a relationship with added familial obligations that may make it difficult to get out of. At least in love marriage, one has a good idea of what kind of partner they're with; their likes dislike and that they are compatible enough to enter into a marriage to begin with. But in an arranged marriage, the couple most likely doesn't know a lot about each other and they may end up with someone they're absolutely dissatisfied with either emotionally or physically but choose to remain in that marriage because of the family "arranged" nature of it, but it will eventually grow sour and break apart. No one involved in such a marriage can ever be happy!

The concepts of marriage and love and relationships have to be revisited by our society as a whole.

In my opinion, whether it be love or arranged marriage, both individuals need to understand each other's needs and should be respectful of each other's decisions. Only then can we say that marriage is worth it.

On the other hand, in a love marriage, there will be lots of expectations from your partner because you already know each other. On the contrary, in an arranged one, there will not be many expectations, which can lead to fewer arguments and complexity.

Hi, I am Shiraja.

My point of view would be I am not against love or arranged marriage because it all ends with marriage, the partner, compatibility, the green flag or reg flag whataver and more than this everyone has to end up in commitment with family and partner. So, basically I think love reperesent indenpendent your values, respect and also whome you chose. But in arrange for luxury, settled, two family loving each other thats all.

I prefer a love marriage.

Because I believe if the two person's soul is united this universe will fight for them to get married.
Being typically arranged is like getting settled and no masala.

Have a good day, guys.

First of all marriage is not a union of just two person just coming together of two families or two social networks who are more closely thab ever before. So while looking for a partner to their son/daughter, parents will first check the potential of bride/groom family background, socio-economic level, level of education n different values. If so, they feel that then can safely gat married n they can take care of as their parents.

But there are some drawbacks in arranged marriage, not much importance is given in such a marriage because the couple might not have some time/more time to get to know to each other's values, understanding, opinions. And many of them, who are about to get into arranged marriage seem strong sense to obligation and duty to their parents n to do otherwise they perceive of disrespect of their parents and betrayal to their parents n they are ready to get marriage while they know they are unhappy just so their family is happy.

But critics of arranged marriage would say that love in arranged marriage reaches to peak when couple have been about 5 years after.

So I reached at a conclusion that both type of marriage have their own ups n downs, there is no perfect formula for marriage to work its totally depent on our preference in which we feel a settlement.

HI friends,

I'm Sukanya, both love and arrange marriages are having some failures. Love marriages are sometimes not perfect at the same time arrange marriages also very poor. Because, of their cooperation, relationship, sharing, adjustments, love and caring. Some times both are thinking bad. I support arrange marriages why so parents select right family and right decessions, some cases it's not correct. Love marriages are somewhat good but they are not able to do acceptance of parent decisions they do own decisions.

Thank you.

Marriage is a big thing, I would say. Being in a love marriage involves love while arranged marriage is not. The only pro I can think of in arranged marriage is, that one does not have to look for or spend too much time finding someone to marry.

However, in my opinion, I still feel that one still needs love and knowing the person well for it to work.

Marriage to me is a divine institutional fulfillment which creates an open recognition for a union between a man and woman or better put, you union between two admirers. Love, on the other hand, is a burning desire to affectionately share one's emotions with the desired opposite sex. Love commitment and selflessness in union. Therefore marriage based on love is a true fulfillment of human choice for a lifelong partner.

In Conclusion,

Whether it is love marriage or arrange marriage, relationship will work only if both the partners are serious and honest in relationship for love. Life partner must selecting to their own hands or not by force. In India arrange marriage to taking time about understood to each other before arrange marriage.
