Do love marraiges succeed?

I feel they do succeed and i feel no matter whether its love marriage or arranged marriage, the maon point is the understanding between the patners, partnere need to have mutual understanding, self respect, devotion, cooperation and id they do care for themselves, then definitely the marriage will succeed

what do you mean, i thought marriages are for love? where are you from in India that this is that way and this the parents do not want? i dont understand why they would not want you to have love. what do you mean?

i do not see any issue with that..many of my friends had done love marriages and it i snot like they just jumped into a relationship..they took there time and understood each other..and then decided to for it..i think that is the best way to do..and now they are having a very happy and married life..marriage is all about love, understanding and trust..weather it is love or arranged that does not matter much..

It's better to got for Love Marriage. Because lovers can understand eachother before marriage, if their mentality's are different they can chose their own partner.

I think love marriages work great as long as it's actually love and not lust that they confuse as being love. I know my grandmother was married for fifty years before my grandfather passed away. My friends parents have been married about 30 years, and my parents have been married for about 30 years. I would say that most that are actually based on love do survive.

alot of marriages end bcuz people rush into things these days, there all looking for love and are desperate to claim they have found it.

yes my dear in Indian society love marriages can be succeed but only one condition that husband and wife should perform their responsibilities ever after with there depth of heart and trust.

I think love is the most important reason why people marry someone. The fate of those who get married will depend on how they would handle their relationship.

yes sometimes but not always exmple romeio juiliet titanic but love stays upto last breath of life

it entirely depends on the couple who got married.the love should continue even after the marriage;otherwise the disaster starts in their life and results in divorce...

As long as you love your partner and you're happy with him then you're love marriages succeed!as time pass by, you have children coz children are the fruits of love...isn't it?

I know 100s of arranged marriages gone wary, but they dont come in the news. Not because people are not affected by them, but because you get the support of others to cope up with such situations. A lot of my elder cousins and friends have found peace in their second marriages now. No, its not their fault alone. Thats not the topic anyways. Why do love marriages go bad and then theres a racket about them. The answer is simple, you need support to carry through any relationship. Either you and you lover should have it in yourselves in large quantities or the love should be permitted by elders or as the last resort you should have a lot of 'TRUE' friends who are ready to support you through your 'walk through fire'. The fire is not LOVE its LIFE.

in most cases it hasnt

It depends, How people handles it on his way?

No that is a myth.It will succeed and it will not make any difference whetehr it is love or arrnaged marriage the only thing should be that love should be existing in that relationship

parents in india prefer arranged marriage siply bcoz it has been goin for centuries and for anything change in society it takes some time you cant expect ppl to jus say ok go marry anyone you like bcoz we are in the new age...there something called ethics and respect for culture...for eg. marriage with another cast or parnter following another religion to most parents is a NO NO...parents dont only say this for the benifits of the kids but also for the benifits of their grand-children....... but all in all the love is the glue in any relationship...if its arranged or not......

i think it will.... most of all depends on them..

NO. I don't agree that most of the Love Marriages succeed. If you do a survey you will only a small percentage of love marriages which are success. Reason is most of the love marriages are the result of not a true love but an infatuation. Most of the times both buy and gal behave impractically. There certian shortcoming in every person so is with the guy and the gal but they overlook it before marriage but after marriage those shortcomings are the only reasons which one cannot stay with other. Parents with their experience try to explain but when in most of the cases children dont listen parents say OK go ahead with the wedding and finally children land themselves in trouble. I am not saying all but most of the cases are these only. If you see the crime records you will find huge number of crime is there where young couple married and land up themselves in trouble. Recently there is a case in Banglore where couple married against their family by ending relation with them around 8 years back. They have a 6 yrs. old daughter and the was not happy with the relation she left her huband can came to banglore but her husbang brutally killed her in front of their 6 yrs. old daughter stabbing 15 times. Again I am saying not all cases but most of the cases land themselves in trouble because they think impractically before marriage because most of them are either too much infatuated or are blind in love and dont see the practicalities of life and even if told by others they gave a damn to listen it.

I guess in India (which your profile says you are from) a normal marriage is a marrigae that is arranged by the parents. I understand that in some cases the bride and groom may not have even met before the ceremony. In "the west", what you call "love marriages" are the norm. Where two people meet, fall in love and get married. I think that statistically, "love marriages" are more likely to end in divorce than arranged marriages, but that may not be a true indication of success as there would undoubtedly be far more family pressure to stay together in an arranged marriage.

i believe that love marriage or arranged marriage- the chances of success in both are absolutely the same. because, success in a marriage does not depend on the fact that you have chosen your spouse yourself or yur parents have chosen one for you, it solely depends on the fact that how do you cooperate with him/her and how well the two people gel! So if two people have decided to spend their lives together, i feel nobody should stop them. they are adults, and if they are considered mature and sensible enough to choose cho will rule the country (we can vote at 18 yrs), then i feel choosing a life partner should be a difficult or immature decision!!
