Do you think that arranged marriages

This is a really good question baby,and I am sure that a lot of different people will have different opinions when it comes to the topic,and whether or not they think that an arranged marriage is a faster way to get to know your partner,and I am sure there is a lot behind arranged marriages,and I am sure that it varies depending on the culture of a person,and I do not know a lot about arranged but I think that it is harder to get to know your partner when your in an arranged marriage especially since you could have nothing in common,while if you meet someone you have a lot in common with,then it is easier to get to know them,and it is also easier to make a marriage work with someone you pick,other than with someone who you are arranged to marry,and I have never quite understood how parents could arrange for their kids to marry especially before the kids are born,or before they are old enough to realize what love,and marriage is.

[b]What you said is right in some cases not for everyone right. love marriages are faster to be know each other and lead a happy life than arrange marriage. It takes time in arrange marriage to settle . It is very difficult to say that they will know each other soon.[/b] Take Care

I dont really believe in arranged marriages, I think people should make there own choice as to who they want to marry, and they should only marry when and if there ready, and know one else should decide for them now, with that being said, I do understand that some cultures do still have arranged marriage's, and I respect those cultures believes, but I just dont agree with arranged marriage's I believe in a persons right to make there own choice when it comes to love and marriage, they should not be made to marry anyone out of duty or obligation.

Hi, i don't think so. as in the arranged marriages couple had no prior contact with each other...so only after the marriage/during the marriage they come in contact and it always takes time for 2 people to know each other...specially if its a relationship like this then i am sure both will be moving cautiously but confidently... :)

I am married and I found my wife not through the arranged married. However, let me share my thoughts before I married. I maybe one of the persons who still believe that arranged marriages are faster way to get our partner. As a son, I should trust my parents' thoughts about our long-life partner. After that, I just try to see directly the girls that my parents' wanted and see whether she suit me or not. In my case, my parents never arrange a marriage for me. They entrusted me to find the girl that I wanted by myself.

First of all,I wanna to say that I don't like arranged marriages at all,I think it is old fashioned !We are in a mornden world now,and we are a new generation. But apart from my opinion towards arranged marriage,I think they indeed is a faster way to get to know each oter.Why? Because we are more busier now,we don't have much time to meet people,and we don't believe strangers easily!

arranged marriages might be a faster way of getting to know each other but there is nothing compared to the life experience of find and falling in love with soneone..I believe there has to be a certain chemistry between people and I don't think anyone can force that upon anyone else..I couldn't imagine being in a marriage with out the love to even start it off, i couldn't imagine partaking in some things that people in love do for each other without there being love there...being in love is the most beautiful state to be in, to go through life without that feeling must be horrible.

H[i]i SomeCowgirl, I don't think so...There are several ways to get to know people and prospect partners in life but I believe it is one of those ways.... [/i]

Arrange marriages are customary in some regions, but nowaday, even those regions are not anymore particular with those system, unless they are very traditional nations. For me, i'm not against it if its really mandate but on personal view, marriage should not only be between man and women but they should be binded by love and respect. They can only acquire it by friendship and going through the what we so called courtship. And, being a women, i want the feeling of being loved, cared and respected.

Hi, In 'arranged marraige' the influence of parents/society/status etc are more than the marrying partners.Therefore,it is unlikely to become a faster-way to get to know each other,than the "LOVE-Marraige",where the understanding and knowing each other process starts much before the marraige. =Lahiri,Kolkata,India.

How do you mean that it is a faster way to know your partner? I think that arranged marriage more like a speed dating, or speed marriage. You don't have to spend time to get to know that person first before you committed to her or him. It is more dependent on someone else do the work for you, and you just waiting there to finish the ceremony. I won't agree with it.

I don't know, some people are okey with it, some are not. Others depend on love marriages, others depend on their parents. Whatever that you feel like you will be happy and you are doing the will of God in your life, you will be the one to choose for yourself. I think you are old enough to decide what you want in your life but if your parents talked to you about this matter that they like someone for you, you decide very wisely, it is not them that will be with that person for the rest of their lifetime but you.

I am not sure if this is what you mean. But the fastest way to know a person that you want to spend the rest of you life with is through friendship. My husband and I were friends first and it seems that when you are friends first there is no suger coating, making yourself look better so you can get married. Friends are honest with friends and there for you know more about the person. More then you would as a girlfriend or future spouse. Arranged marriage means there most likely was some suger coating to make your parents want you to marry the person.
