Arranged Marriage is a phenomenon which is pecuilar to India & third world countries. The whole wedding thing is not decided by the couple at all. The decision is made by the parents of the groom and the bride. 'Falling in love' is considered a taboo and usually folks don't do no such thing. In olden days (like maybe 30-40 years back) it would not be very uncommon to see a man married to woman whom he barely knows and has never ever spoken to (or in some cases - seen). The arranged-marriage system, even though it has evolved over a period of time, still exists. However, these days the girl and the boy like to meet each other, maybe spend some time together (approx 4 lunch dates to a few months 'seeing' each other) and then decide to get married. Also, acceptance of love-marriages has definitely increased over the past few decades. Getting love marriage is difficult in traditionally bounded third world countries. The scenario is now changed to make worse in the future.

i always prefer love marriage.bcoz in my point of view it's very intrinsic to know the girl before marriage.and it's possible through the loving relation.at the present age it's very very important,no one is plausible at this time.what do u think?

i hate parents that arrange their children's marriage. I saw many cases, but i never let somebody to tell me wwhat should i do and whom should i marry. Actually, i found my love and soon we will mary. My parents said it is only my decision and i am the person which will be with that girl, not they or her parents.

love because u have something to hold on to as u usually love and respect the other person and anybodies mistakes etc. when an arranged marriage happens both people are unknown to each other so the care less about each other and do not necessarily want what is best for the other.
love marriage is precious. FYI

It is unfortunate that marriages begin with "love" and die because of "lack of love," but still technically survive because of money issues. I don't know what's more important. It seems as though if people thought that love was truly more important they would stay or leave despite financial reasons, but this is not the case. So, it is money that rules, not love.
