which do you think is the best- love marriage or arranged marriage. which do you prefer and why. i think love marriage has upper hand as both husband and wife has better understanding.as they will know each other better.

I would NEVER let anyone decide whom i am supposed to marry.I will marry for nothing but love. A marriage without love would just not be a marriage to me. I do not also belive that you can "learn" to love someone - sure you can learn to like the perosn and learn to live with him.. but love is not soemthing you learn, it´s something you do!

I prefer love marriages because the husband and wife are usually happier. However, arranged marriages are actually more successful because the husband and wife know what they are getting out of the marriage. It's run more like a business transaction and isn't clouded by emotion.
