This is not a new situation. Since ages ago, people have been arranging marriage for their children for some family which is doing certain businesses and financially strong in order to have mutual interest between both family in their business. Sometimes the children are forced to marry someone they don't even know. Of course sometimes it is the youngster who chose to let go of their love and go for someone who can assist them financially or in career. As for you my friends, would you give up your current mate for someone else whom his or her family would give you career opportunities and make you advance in your social status? If the rich and influencial family or person ever propose you for marriage what will you do?why? I would stick with my current girlfriend and I will work hard myself to be successful in career.

The decision in this situation really matters on the kind of person being involved.In my own point of view,I rather choose the person I really love.I will choose that because if you truly love that person then you can strongly face the trials and able to survive the difficulties in life. It sounds very pitifu for me to the person being choosen because it might be helpful to you.Then what if he will not be helpful anymore in the future?What are you going to do?

I am lucky because I do not have to deal with arrange marriages. But my current boy friend is Chinese and he would've had to deal with that kind of situation if his dad was still be alive. His brother and sister married someone out of the Chinese community which is why his mom is taking me pretty well because of her past experiences with her older children. I guess I am lucky that the expectations when it comes to her son marrying someone who would benefit them financially isn't as demanding as when his sister introduced her fiance to the mother. As for the question, I would rather be with someone I love because most relationships that are like this end up in disagreements, lose of respect and infidelity.

I would focus on my career if I had it to do all over again and then focus on a relationship. Relationships take a lot of time and work.
