Actually I don't see a problem with it. "Love" isn't a feeling, it's a decision. A decision to hold one person in the uttmost regards, to respect them, trust them, and expect the same stipulations towards you, from them. I don't think that a lot of people understand that anymore. I didn't until just recently. So, yeah, arranged marriage is looked down upon and I don't know why, most people bring their prospective mates home to their parents for approval anyway, why not let them pick someone for you. I think everyone thinks of arranged marriage in the mind set of like, "The parents are mean and don't want him/her (usually the girl) to be happy, so they'll pick someone that is a terrible match for them." No matter who you, or anyone else, choose(s) for you it'll all play out the same. You have to learn about them, and you have to decide what makes them tick and both partners have to meet in the middle. It's not a bad concept all in all. Wow, I should not even be awake, let alone thinking this much! LOL!

I don't think anything wrong in it. Your parents won't find u a wrong person. Because they love us. If they want us 2 marry the boy/girl they wishes whats wrong in it. They have been doing many sacrifices to bring us up. In some cases there r people who divorce............ but don't think that all are leading a bitter life. If any thing that u can't stand happens, ur parents will b there 2 find a solve. Love the person with all ur heart. Arranged *** love marriages are also fun

I had a sorority sister in college whos parents arranged her marriage. She graduated, started dating him and they got married soon after that...and she has never been happier! I personally wouldn't do well in an arranged marriage, but some stick with tradition, and it works for them.

They are a big no no for me , love cannot be arranged . Sorry to directly put it off but this concept of arranged marriage doesn't appeal to me.

The ones that aren't arranged don't work out so well, maybe the arranged ones will work better.

Unfortunate form of prostitution. Parents have no right to demand, decide or indicate whom their child will marry because THEY dont have to be intimate with that person. Being made to have a sexlife with someone you are not inlove with is the worst form of rape imaginable...why would a parent want that for their baby? No amount of money or family acceptance is worth that.

If you are in a cultural/familial situation where there is absolutely no other choice, don't fight it and accept as it as much as you can tolerate. Don't fight it because you are wasting your time and energy. Love can come with time and an open heart.
BUT if you can get out of it, RUN in the opposite direction and FAST! Don't look back LOL

I think it is an appaling excersize in slave trading, "my daughter for your land" or "My son for family nobility" or what have you. It's archaic, grossly unjust, and must be outlawed in any part of the world that still practices it.
