Why is it generally people feel that arrange marriage proves to be a happier marriage than a love marriage?

The success of a marriage whether it is 'arranged' or 'love' depends on the commitment of the two people involved. There had been successful arrange marriages and drastic failures and the same goes for love marriage as well. It is two people coming together to form one unit called family.Success=Commitment. No marriage is 'Perfect'.

I like the way you bring up the perspective. No marriage is perfect. None answer can be the right except this one. Who can guarantee love marriage will stand for last, who said arranged marriage is worst while some people had changed their perspective after experiencing it.

In arranged marriage couples do not take each other for granted. In Love marriage couples still try to treat other as their romantic partner and take each other for granted. They just forget that they are husband & Wife and they have to follow some general principles of life and society.

this differs opinion from society to society. It seems that people think so as arranged marriages are made arranged by elders with lot of experience. but it has the risk not knowing the person beforehand. After marriage everything depends on the couples.

As a free people to choose, I would like to choose a love marriage rather than arrange marriage. For me, I would choose to a love marriage. I would choose this because I believe that having a love to the person who you marry will bring a good harmony to your relationship and it is not hard to be him/her for the rest of your life.
