obviously a love marriage. I feel very lucky to be american and have all the freedoms that I have. I think it is ridiculous that some places have rules where you can't marry who you want to marry or worship who u want to worship. I think it's a bunch of bull.

It does depend on where you live exactly and the traditions. If I had to pick personally, probably I'd choose love marriage and find someone I can love and be with for the rest of my life. That's usually how I look at it.

This is a very common topic, i have seen this topic posted by many users. Anyway love marriage is love marriage, how can somebody take the risk of blindly selecting a life partner. So, love marriage will have more advantage.

There are successes and failures both in the Love and Arranged Marriages. So I cant say which one of them is the best one. But the only thing i can say is that, when the partners can understand each other, have a give and take policy among themselves and love each other to their core, then any type of marriage will be a great success. Without all these, the marriage will be a miserable failure, either a love or an arrange marriage.

why you lost your trust in love? And if you lost trust in love than how you love that person whom you are arranged.

I think it's better to choose your mate yourself. Although, I might just think that because that is how it is done here and that is all I've known or experienced. Either way, there are no guarantees. I just can't imagine being stuck with someone that I did not like because that's who my parents thought I should be with.

it's really nice to live with a man that we trully love and not a stranger to us. You can never call him a partner if you don't even know him. I can't imagine mylife with a man I really don't know.
