@syeow1 YOU and your partner are who make the marriage the best marriage. Not what type of marriage

In my country there is no arranged marriage, I met my husband at college. Although I have know people with arranged marriages and not one of them was divorced.

@PaintsOnSlate They are not divorced that's because divorce is the very very last resort in their culture. Most of the time it is not even in the cards. You just suck it up and deal with it whether you like it or not. want it or not. Not getting divorce doesn't necessarily means that they are happily married. But that also doesn't mean that arranged marriages are bad because they are not. They have a great potential of laying a strong foundation to a healthy happy marriage.

I think it all depends on a person's situation. I believe that we should all be free to find whoever we want to love. But if a person approves of an arranged marriage, if it is their culture or don't want to deal with the awkward dating phases, I don't see why not.

Yes love is blind .I think in love you should accept all good and bad habits .But after marriage I see most of love marriages change in divorce because after marriage they want only good habits.

In my country here, we marry love and at times arranged. The main reason for arrange marriage is when we have a situation where the lady is getting old with no man to propose marriage. People around her begin to worry so they will try and get a man for her. A lot of arranged marriage work while some has failed likewise is marrying for love. I think what causes failed marriages is how the couples deal with it. Not because it is arranged or for love.

Both can work if there is commitment and willingness to make the marriage succeed. That being said, I don't think anyone should be forced to marry someone who is repulsive to them. There should be mutual respect. Love can grow as the people are married. People who marry for love or who are infatuated and think they are in love will divorce because they were not fully committed to the marriage and abandon ship the first time something doesn't please them.

It would really depend on the situation. It has to be terribly difficult to be married to someone you don't know.

As important as love is respect. One has to respect one's partner, whether the marriage was for love or arranged. If not, the marriage will be unhappy.
