It's like eating something you do not like. You are forced to do it because of an uncorrectable compromise or for critical reasons. Even if you detest the situation you have to abide. But would you really do something you do not like such as marrying some which is against your will?

Maybe yes but I wont live with her my whole life. Cause the fact that I never would love her, and never will learn to love her. It's to hard leaving with someone that you don't love. Maybe or after wards I'll just leave and and go somewhere else to start my new life again if ever my marriage with her cannot be annul or divorce. Have a nice day to you!

no, i won't. it would be way too difficult to live your everyday life after the matrimony if you don't really love your partner. it's like having a burden which you have to carry and live with everyday of your life. to see your partner's face everyday and deal with him or her, whom you don't have any feelings for, that would be really stupid. no way that relationship would work.

I would never do such a thing as to marry someone I do not love. Marriage should be based off of love in my opinion. I feel very sorry for those who believe in arranged marriages. These people may ultimately live unhappy for the rest of their lives. Who's to say who the best person for you to marry besides yourself? No one knows you better than you do. I personally know someone who has literally told me that she was in love with someone else when she got married. She did say that they had planned to get married eventually, but did so earlier than planned because she got pregnant. First of all, I don't belive in getting/staying married for the kids. I would have been miserable if I would have married my son's father! But this person that I know is miserable and I have mixed feelings on the whole situation. On one had I feel a little sorry for her that she is living an unhappy life, but on the other hand she has complete control of her happiness and is the only one that can change what is making her unhappy. She could leave him if she chose to, but said she doesn't have enough guts to. I could elaborate on this story for hours, but this is pretty much it in a nutshell, I think you've all gotten the point! So in my opinion - marry who you love, not who others think is right for you. Only you can be the judge of that.
