Love or Arrange Marraige!!!




Its been a controversial topic for years and I bet it will be the same in the years to come. I always wonder why people contradict about the most beautiful thing that can ever happen to living being- Love.

It is expressed by many people in the society that love marriages are mere disasters. I am totally against the community which has a preconceived notion that love marriages are wrong. Both have their pros and cons but I believe in myself, I think I have every right to take a decision and stick to that when I know that a wrong one would haunt me lifelong.When you are left with no choice, you need to take the chance and stand by your heart when it’s the most important decision of your life. Its not an year commitment, its commitment for life and you should have the final say.

Parents tend to forget facts, the most important factor of a successful marriage are the couple themselves. Its their commitment, understanding and love that strengthens the bond. They should be involved, they need to take decisions, they need to share things, and ultimately they need to live their lives.

Arranged marriages are supposed to be more successful than love marriage, Do you think so?. People from past do argue about the marriages in their generation which are supposed to be Strong and Effective, Do you think they are all happy and lead an uncompromised life? . I do agree marriages fail do you think they are all love marriages? There are failures everywhere, so do love marriages. Failure has many reasons, I don bother about people who want to stay separate, Its their call. But I seriously feel you need be more conscious when you sharing 50 years of your life with someone?. Everyone live their life but only few of them live it happily , if you want to be one of them think twice before you decide.

If you got to chose between understanding and compromise, what would that be? Understanding is foundation of love compromise is outcome of arranged marriage. Only lucky few get understanding partner in an arranged marriage and rest they compromise.

Arranged marriage is tossing a coin, you might get a head or a tail, but love marriage is tossed coin you know the outcome beforehand. It’s your life, you are the one who has every right on it, you who need to take the responsibility, Good or bad, you should have control of your life. That’s what life is all about.

So there is nothing like an ideal marriage it’s all about the way you perceive your marriage. The target is the happiness and stability of the relation in the marriage whether it is love or arranged.

Everyone respects India for its family and marriage system, we have solid relationships and strong bonding. Whether its love or arranged, please value the relationship only relations keep us alive everything else just don’t matter.

Love, understanding, faith and respect ……..Believe in them marriages never fail……

I agree with ur words ramesh. 4 every marriage Luv, Understanding ,Faith and Respect r the main important pillars. Lack of any one of these results in an imbalance relationship. I support u in this debate that love marriages are best than arranged. Endukante arrange marriage chesukune tappudu pelli peetala meeda kurchunnappudu we will have a question arising all the time in our brain " Ippudu life ela untundo?" ani but in luv marriage we will not be in such dilemma because v very well know about the person v r going to share our life wth. So I do completely agree with whatever u said in this discussion.

Ramesh..This is aditya..phani's cousin...

I do agree mostly with you but not on some points... You wrote

'Arranged marriage is tossing a coin, you might get a head or a tail, but love marriage is tossed coin you know the outcome beforehand.'

Cant agree more on the first part...But I dont totally agree with love marriage being compared to a tossed coin...If it was, we would not see so many love marriages failing...If people knew that the outcome of this marriage is a 'divorce', they would not go ahead with the marriage...

I feel love marriage is a 'tossed coin' which has not come to rest completely..You seem to know which side it may fall onto...but again, it can fall on the other face..you never know...

If you were to compare it to a tossed coin, some (many??) love marriages can be compared to a fake coin with heads on both sides..people think they already know the outcome but not until some body peels off the fake face from the tossed coin and reveal the true face....then..you have the same probability of that side being the one you wanted or the one you didn't...

Aditya, nice to see you here. Aditya, regarding the tossed coin, I have no concern on result whether its a fail or a success what i meant is you know the person beforehand and its your decision and call there after.

I have no right to comment on the outcome. my last line speaks that. Its purely on the married couple. I meant to say in love marriages you have the chance to know your partner before hand and in arranged its your destiny.

I agreed with you on the fact that you know the person well....but not as well as you say you know..like an already tossed coin...if they knew as well as that...they wouldnt get those misunderstandings big enough to split them later...

Its the analogy with tossed coin that I did not agree on....

Ok...end of argument...
