I always a believer that any marriages should be based with love, either it is arranged or not. But somehow people just confused the 'love' they feel, and they just rushed into a marriage without having a long term life planning. And then without the readiness, everything fell down, and ended up in divorce.
In arranged marriage, the arranger, this could be the parents or someone else, have think about the long term planning. They see those two people, they giving reviews and see it as the third person which is more objective image of the marriage. But somehow they forgot the main ingredients on marriage, love.
I don't have any idea which one is better. But for me, every marriage should be based in love, and if parents agree with the marriage, they could arrange it to us, so it would be just perfect, isn't it?

Well klaudine You are right but My opinion is I like that marriage where is understanding and internal feelings between couple.They knows each other weakness and strong point and share each other opinion between them.Whatever that is love marriage or arrange marriage.

Definitely true. I forgot those points. Thank you for remind me of that. The understanding between others, the respects to both parties, and knowing each other to the deepest, also trust between each others would be the important part that could make the marriage last... you're right!

I prefer to choose love marriage, because mine is love marriage. For me, it is much easier to spend my lifetime with someone that I choose by myself. I need to be comfortable with someone before I decide to make him as my husband, of course I have to love him also, and for me sometime it takes a long time. I have been in relation with my husband for almost 6 years before I decide to marry him.

Well in an arranged marriage, you can come to love each other. If you do, it's just as good as one that you chose yourself. And then it just depends on what you do with it, open communication, respect, putting the other person before yourself...
