I think love marriage is better as you got to know the person before hand and you know the qualities about the person and you even know whether or not the other person is compatible to you so this decreases the chances of clash afterwards. In arrange marriage you don't know about the person. It is like a surprise gift, it can be anything and this could lead to un matching character.

My dear friend the data that you are talking about is of the generation gone by. It is so because at that time love marriage was not quite common and the most prominent way was arrange marriage. The situation now has changed as women are becoming more independent than before and they too make choices for their life partner which was not very common in the past. With rapid modernization the trend is changing altogether and now most working professionals wish to go in for love marriage rather than arrange marriages.

oh well.. for me love marriage goes. i feel afraid of the very idea of marryin a person to b wid whole ur life without even knowin the little things bout him... and tht is not possible to discover even after a yr of courtship.. i mean atleast i can pretend to b the best u can find very easily for even two yrs...

The key ingredient to any successful marriage is Love, period. Whether it be 'arranged' or 'love marriage', without love that marriage becomes a burden. Love marriage might be better of for you live with the consequences of your decisions. If in future you should have marital problems in an arranged marriage, you may tend to blame the ones who arranged the marriage. However, this doesn't mean that arranged marriages don't work.
