Higher divorce rate in love marriages

I strongly agree wid this study coz wen the person is in love... For him or her everythhing is gud...and having a lot of expectations from each other. But things r very different after marriage...they expect the same stuff after marriage. But wen they r unable to cope up wid that a lot of stress,trouble,tension arises in relation...which is not a sign of healthy relation... As if the things go worse they think of getting rid of each other...it's a saying dat love is blind but marriage is a real eye opener.......

It happens just they have lived up their life before marriage and they are not comfortable with this life. This is the only reason why they get divorced.

I think that this issue is something that is very interesting in the modern day world, because of the fact that we are hearing about more and more divorce. I think if we choose our own partner, we know that we also have the ability to get rid of them just as easily. If we have an arranged marriage however, there is more pressure on it to work because it isn't just about the couple, but about their families living and working together as well, and this means that there would be more people hurt than those people who fell in love and then got married.

I think we cant say this because in new generation couples even they are get marry love or arrange they are taking the divorce on small thing. If the girl is ugly after marriage then get divorce, if husband income is low divorce, misunderstanding divorce, not trust on each other divorce. I think in both marriages the divorce rate is high.

go back to a decade you will realize what is real love, and see today's love you will realize love that is fashion and attraction, that is what the most common reason of divorce in love marriage. People who are really in love needs to maintain and sacrifice a lots of things, they have to care for the happiness of his/her partner more than itself and vice versa. Now people do not find real love, they are just attracted towards his/her external beauty, money, reputation and when they get it they feel frustrate, .lack of understanding and many more. Today a lots of people just think I am what I am, I will not change. Loving someone is easy but carrying out the responsibilities of love is toughest that is why they do divorce.

yes it is one of the most unbelievable phenomena which often confuse people since the couples have been loving each other for so many years and sharing their feelings and thoughts and then enter in to a new life but soon they find themselves uncomfortable with each other and often results in divorces. so it can be assumed that most of the people are masking their original character in order to win the hearts of other person and if they succeed in that attempt they will start showing their real character which often cause problems in their life . so it will be the reason for such huge increase in divorce rate in love marriages.

It is really sad to hear that the divorce rates are higher among love marriages. Whats even more painful is, one time lovers now become life-time haters:( I think if the couple can control their mind and if they can respect each others views, love marriages can be very prosperous...

I guess I can see where this would make sense. As those who have arranged marriages are more likely to have a conservatory view of marriage. As most people who get married on their own decide to get married and feel like if things don't work out they can get a divorce. So i think that study makes sense.

I remember discussing a similar topic in one of my classes. We talked about higher divorce rates nowadays and what could be causing it. The professor explained it to us by saying that peoples' ideas of marriage are a lot looser and marriage isn't seen as some "unbreakable" vow like how it used to be. Couples are choosing to live together before marriage and studies have also shown that cohabitation could also lead to divorce. It just means that people don't have such strict views anymore and if they think living together is ok before marriage, then they're also more likely to think that divorce is something that's ok to do. I'm not sure how arranged marriages come into this but it could have something to do with the fact that an arranged marriage is more like a business deal and the couple is in it to get work done and have a place to live and then they could possibly grow to love each other. I think it all has to do with the couple's view of marriage. If they see it as a lifetime commitment, then I think they'd be more likely to work out their problems and differences.

It depends on what you call a love marriage and what you call an arranged marriage. Also if it comes to an arranged marriage the country/culture counts too. If you are a woman without any rights, your whole family will kick you out, you have no income if you want to divorce, there is not much chance to escape out of a bad marriage without love where your husband treats you like a piece of dirt and as his property. So if you do a study like this you need to know much more info. This besides of the fact that if you want to invest something (which is according to you true) you will ask the kind of questions which will prove what you like to hear. This is proved btw.

I believe this study that many love marriages end up in the divorce courts unlike the arranged marriages where the choice is dependent upon the parents or guardians. It is very often nowadays that couples who married for love grows out of love because of different circumstances. Others are blinded by love and fail to choose the right person to be married to. They jump hastily into the marriage without looking at the faults of the partner and regret later on. The parents choose the life partner in arranged marriages. Who knows better than the parents? They always have our best interests at heart and will surely find one whom they think is the best and most compatible lifetime partner. The love grows from the union which often becomes very successful.

Hi there! Although I am a Christian and I live in a place where there is no divorce, I can say that if a couple would no longer live happy with each other, what would be the reason for staying together? Maybe each one have the right to find somebody that would make them happy.

Hi, To some extent i dont agree to this statement, the reason being, if you are commited to a love marriage, you got ample time to know each other before marriage, You always develop a good understanding and bond between each other, then just after marriage if you are getting divorsed for some reason or the other, the entire blame cannot be given to love marriage, the same situation can happen in arrange marriage as well, and i personally feel that the chances of getting divorced is much higher in arrange marriage comaped to love marriage, where you dont know your partner, where you are not sure whether your partner will be compatabile with you. So, my take is i dont belive love marriage can give rise to more divorse, its about the situation, its about understanding each other.

I am not sure about the condition of survey, I mean where did they conduct it because it depends from lace to place and country to country. What could be considered in one country or society may not go well in other country or society. So if some marriages fail, they may have different reasons apart from love or arranged marriage. In the end this is understanding that counts most.

Who would want to disappoint there parents if there parents are the ones that picked there mate. They might not be in love with that person or want to be with them but they feel there is no way out so they are stuck for life. Unlike someone who is married for love they can leave if they want to at any time.

actually today's trend is different from the old trends and so love is becoming the most common thing and all are unable to find out the true love and are not able to determine weather it is true love are attraction. to become a perfect couple he/she should be moth are mutual understanding in nature and in any case they both can manage any situation in the life then only divorce like situations could not happen. this is one kind of analysis . and the other kind is mostly illegal affairs dominates the love in that case after marriage they get bored towards each other and want to separate each other and they are not able to find out the value of the life and marriages . and their is another thing that is this kind of things are because we are unable to build out the good family relationships so this is also one kind of the thing that we are not able to find any thing and so on . and today the large family is get break down into small family and day to day busy in life also one of the thing that leads to going to this kind of things. to build a happy life without a divorce we should improve the love , maintain the good family relations and mutual understanding between the wife and husband etc
