Arrange Vs Love Marriage

Marriage is one of the important transitional phases in the life of a man and women. But the whole set up of marriage has distinct classification Love and arrange marriage. For an evolving society like India, Love marriages are still a taboo. So if you have love marriage it is looked from pessimistic perception from a certain section of the society. But my objective of writing this piece e is not to put forward what the society thinks, but rather analyze what are the chances of success for an arrange marriage and love marriage. I am a bachelor, so the view is based on my observing post married life of a couple from both the camps. I won’t bore you much with my Guru Gyan , but the bottom line Love marriage is an informed choice where we know the partner for some time so the failure or success depends solely on the individual and their ability to gel with rest of family members from both sides. Whereas in an arrange marriage it’s the coming together of two families, so the relationship is cemented on a wider platform called family. But there is a catch in arrange marriage since we don dot know our partner, it will be a case of trying and adjust to choice which is not our own. At the end of the day, it is the couple who decide whether they want to have a successful marriage life. God bless all newly wed couples.
