i would say a love marriage. i know myself i would rather pick the man i want to be with. i dont mind taking advice from parents but that would be about it! i have a daughter and i would never tell her who she has to marry! just give my best advice to her about who she picks. i would rather her be happy and in love with a man she has picked then be unhappy and married with a man i thought was best. if i found a guy who i thought she might like i would get them to go on a date but that would be has far as i would go. if she liked him great if not thats fine to

Hi, Any case Love or Arrange Marriage. I think there should not be any impulsive decision. If there is too much difference (Economic, social, cultural) then you should think and go ahead. Otherwise after the birth of Kids it becomes problematic. Also you should take a little bit of Astrological Consulting too.

Both have its own merits and demerits. In love marriage, provided it is true love and not infatuation things work out better than arranged marriage. But in case the love marriage does not work out then you have to blame yourself for the decision. Whereas in arranged when the parents take the decision it is always their fault when things go haywire. Be it love marriage or arranged marriage the success lies entirely on the couples who are responsible for the mutual understanding, love and faith and the determination to keep the marriage a success. Happy mylotting.

Needless to say, we all prefer our personal choice. We are the one who get married, and the rest of our lives with that particular person forever, not our parents. So, the ultimate choice is always on our hands, not on our parents. We are living in 20th century.

Greetings :) This question is quite intriguing for me. Taking note that my parents have very good taste in women and they won't give me a girl that looks like maid or picked out of nowhere, I would think I wouldn't mind arranged marriage. Arranged marriage is actually good in a sense that courtship doesn't have to happen anymore. That means guys like me don't have to spend on the multiple dates just to be left for another guy. Arranged marriage is also good because, at least the two parties involved are at peace with each other. That means guys like me don't have to worry about disapproving in laws. True, it is nicer to pick your spouse yourself but, if you have awesome parents like mine that know the minimum of what you want (physically) in a spouse it is all good because, you know that your parents will find a person that could fix or even compliment your behavior and would know how to deal with you. Since it is arranged, things will be forced to work out.

As days have changed now, the partner should be judged first and then selected for marriage. This is true both for love marriage or arranged marriage,
