wat u said is true but these 2 cant happen simultaneously in every case... many parents wont agree to love because of some reasons mainly igo problems.... if u have to choose any one then wat is your choice?

we cannot criticize on these two topics, as marriage with strings attached is extremely decieving, love does not exist till it apparently happens...arranged marriege is practiced in the wrong many by most ppl, but i know alot of people who had arranged marriages, and r better ppl than that of love marriages.

I dont agree with arranged marriages. Although the divorce rate is lower with arranged marriages, I will never believe that people are happier in an arranged marriage. The biggest reason that arranged marriages work is not because the couples are so happy, but because they will live in an unhappy marriage rather than bring shame on their family by getting divorced. Im american and my husband is east indian, so of course our marriage was a love marriage. However, I do understand the culture and thinking behind arranged marriages, I just dont agree with it. It isnt something I would ever do to my children.

ya... i too agree with u completely.. in arranged marriages the couples will think that they r living happily though they r not... they'll be chesting themselves throughout their life.... (may be not true in all cases)

Well said Dear...I do understand the logic behind arranged marriages that used to be part of Indian tradition in old days but I think nowadays its a mess... and no more makes sense in todays world....

Of course arrange marriage is good option as you dont have to think before marriage but take care about everything from understanding to the solutions, but love marriage is better as you can understand each other before marriage and make parents agree to make it arrange marriage but after marriage two to three years there would be nothing called as love just formalities and needs that both will continue for. I suggest any one can marry and let it be formal and informally keep loving others whom they are interested as I do.... I m married but I still flirt around and also date but always use safety precautions if I attire myself into xxx situation

I would say whichever works for you !! But personally for me Love Marriage is the onlyoption... Ideally arranged marriage works coz people make it work..then it maybe good or bad way...depends.. Though things like change in nature after marraige are quite common in Love marriages, still I would prefer Love marriages.. Cheers !! :)

On thinking about the problems that love marriages would face is religion,and wealth.....Well it could be better if we love a girl of our same religion,who's wealthy enough......In this case it''s somewhat an arranged one.....To avoid tensions and problems ,think of havin an arranged one.....

i think love marriages are better because it was dependent on the free will of two people to get together and share lives. arranged marrianges are forced upon two people and although that could work, it is kinda hit and miss. some will work, some will have to live slightly unhappily about it. some may not even work at all and will get divorced if possible. http://darkzzt.blogspot.com/

hi,amulya good for being in same secundrabad. love and arraraged marriage will be pon the person. i will give both answers for arranged and love - first u should know ur status it mean what about ur parents decission aobut love they will agry or not? what about thier name in the society.if u love any one u should left then in the middle.if u got any numerous problems even though u should marry .if these things are there in them they can love with each other otherwise if u not have that skills then u prefer to go arrangedmarriages.

I think that there is nothing more important than LOVE in a marriage. So I can't support "arranged marriages". So I agree with you, love marriage is better because you can understand better the person for whom you fell in love, but not only for this reason. Before understanding better a person, you have to fall in love for him/her, and this can happen only if you like that person. It's difficult that you can like a person that someone else introduces to you, so I think that, first, you see a person and you like him/her, second you fall in love for him/her and only later you know him/her and start staying with him/her and understanding him/her better. This can't happen in the "arranged marriages".

let me tell u, there r plenty of cases where love marriages r the failure, whereas u won't find such in case of arranged marriage. firstly, it all depends upon the personal mindset whether he or she really is ready to adjust somewhere in life. i feel a pefect partner is the one who will complete the remaining half of the others. in most marriages, there will be atleast one or two occasions when ur viws will not be agreed by ur partner. in case of love marriage, u will feel a lot for any fight with ur partner as the decision of love marriage will be totally taken by u, not by any other in the family. whereas in the other case, u won't have such feelings... anyway, for both the cases there r some pluses and minuses..
