I know people who marry because age is not on their side, or because someone jilted them so they needed another lover to make up, and consequently marry without loving the person.
My question is do you really think one can marry whom he/she doesnt love becuase of pressure from home or the features listed above?

Yes! people get married out of fustration which is not really the best. But in another part, I dont blame people like that because it is not always easy for you to be single for a very longer time without a partner that you will share your feelings with and this can cause emotional disorder. But at the same, if she is trying to wait for her taste and age is not by her side what will she do? It is very possible for a woman to force herself self to love and get married to somebody she does'nt have feeling for through out furstration.

I think some people definently get married for reasons that have nothing to do with love. In our past history marriage of convenience was the norm and in certain countries is still works that way. Couples are matched up by their families and people get married without ever knowing each other especially if you are part of Royalty. Your husband/wife can be picked out before you are even crawling. People also get married for financial reasons. It is easier to have 2 incomes and you get a lot of tax breaks. Personally I only want to get married for love but i see the advantages of marrying for different reasons.
