My fiance and I have been together for 9 years and seen our share of troubles but conquered them(so far).As you know the statistics are against us but I think it will work after all we have 2 kids. I think we will prove them wrong after all LOVE CONQUERS ALL!!

Actually the US and Japan have been allies since then. No hatred between the two countries.

I do think that it works if you really love each other. I think love conquers all as well, if its mutual. I am sooo glad that I didnt marry my first love because he treated me bad. But I sometimes wonder, what might have been..ya know. You never forget your first love. I know I wont.

I don't know. My sister and her first love dated since high school and they just got married a year ago. i think they'll make it because they want to not because they were their first loves.

I think that Love marriages do work more than arranged... as in love marriage the persons get time to know each other... understand each other well... share same sentiments, feelings... they love each other.... trust each other..... So its a total recipe to Happy Life and Fun

If two people are fmeant to be together and don't allow interfernce in their relationship, I can't see why not. Unless they were just in love and needed more..for instance to still go out and party, then, like with any other marriage, it won't work. If I look back on my life, I don't think my first love would have worked as a longlife commitment...but on the other hand..it might have...difficult to say :;

My husband and I have been together for 13 1/2 years, married for 11. We too have had the odds against us, especially since we have been together since we were 16 and married at 18. People give up too easy these days. the best of luck to you both!

They say : Marriages are made in Heaven and happen on Earth. Nature has made different ways for everyone to find his/her soulmate. Marriage is based on mutual respect, understanding, absolute trust and on felt needs will be an everlasting association. Its a bond between two families.

I think that first love marriages work just about as well as any other marriage. You marry because you are "in love". Love is an emotion and over time it changes. It is then that marriage becomes about committment.
