is it possible to first marry then fall in love later? has it ever happened to any of you?

Answer 1

yes,it's possible.

A friend of mine married for convenience and it worked out quite well between them as a couple..they live in the sub-urbs having 4 wonderful children..still happy and very prosperous health,wealth and familywise.

Answer 2

Yes. Why not? Here in America, the ideal is the whole fairy-tale, night in shining armor romance thing. We have been conditioned to think one way regarding a lot of things, and marriage is certainly no exception. But this is not the case for many cultures around the globe. We're so culturally biased that many times we don't even think about that. Marriage means many many different things for different cultures. Here it is a much less practical institution than a lot of the "poorer" areas of the world. The more developed the country, the less women have to depend on men for support. Thus, we have the luxury of choosing a mate based on our feelings and ideals. (Often times so much so that ALL the practical aspects of the relationship come second to the feeling of love.) Many women in other parts of the world simply don't have that luxury. For them, it is more about securing a future that will provide them safety and support. I've read of many stories of arranged marriages where love blooms down the road. So, then, why wouldn't this be possible?

Answer 3

i've neva been married. but i say , yes it's possible to first marry then fall in love, but i advise you not to. most people last time thought this way, and turn out? the divorce rates rose tremendously. it's better that you fall in love first than marry. but falling in love is not the only factor, the main factor is that the both of you must have the same purpose in life, if not communicating with each other and getting on with each other's life will be difficult. all the best ! (:

Answer 4

Of course its possible it happens all the time. Not many will admit it, but many marry before there in love. Many people marry for financial reasons. Others marry because they are tired of being alone. Some marry before love because their companion is ready and they don't want to lose them. And yes many fall in love after marriage.

Answer 5

Yes is possible, but is better is to fall first in love than to marry

Answer 6

Of course it is possible. I think it is the way it usually happens. People often are not in love when they marry. They marry because of lust, money or family pressure. Love comes when they are ready to really make sacrifices. I was married twice and failed both times.

Answer 7

Yes it is, and it works usually cz you marry her because you see her a good person that can be a good wife and mom so you think with your brain and see all the positive and negative points in her so clear and whenever you're convinced with them you marry her and love her afterwards for her possitive things but when you love someone from the beginning you might be blind to see her negative things and you see them after you marry her so it'll be too late!

Answer 8

It could be possible but why would you want to do that, what of they turn out to be crazy and kill you before you get a chance to fall in love with them.

Answer 9

yes ... definitely possible and it has happened before ...

Nothing is definite in this world .. there marriages tat failed even tho the couple has dating for years before tying the knot ... n there are arranged marriages that resulted in loving couples (ofcoz there are failures here as well)

but the gist is ... both parties (wife n husband) must commit to continuously putting in effort to maintain the relationship n make sacrifices for the other haf ... Remember its BOTH parties n CONTINUOUS ... u cannot clap with one hand ... Good luck n hav fun ...

One of my college professors married a woman that he did not love but said that he knew that they would be good together and would grow to love each other.
They are divorced now.
