why is it that arranged marriages in arabia,india,etc etc always end up being a really good decision
when in america, when you actually choose who you want to marry, you end up with a miserable life including 2 children a divorced husband and no job?

i think arranged marriages work.

In arranged marriages the couple use their heads to think about the matter, not just fall in love and forget about the bid sides.
Arranged marriages think about all the aspects and decide according to their needs.
At the same time, it is very important that they accept each other physically cause this is the most important thing,
Arranged marriages do not always work, but I think that it is not as bad as people think.

hey in that area like india and other country who does arranged marriage is because it they believes.. and it up they they parents...
Not all america marriage end up in divorced.. maybe you have not found the right person or soulmate. Or being marry to early.. Now the kids is your life if does end up divorced in this relatioship.. And in another country marriage the person who put together has to like that person before they can have wedding like anywhere else.. If you do not like that person you would not marry that person.. They do arranage marriage but they meet and see if they like each other.. YOu know what..

In the countries that you mention, women have little to no rights. Even when they are married, they are little more than property. Such marriages are also a culture thing as well.

Here in the good old U. S. of A. women have equal rights under the law, and as such can and do use them. Here you can speak your mind, choose your own husband (for better or worse), hold a job, go to school/collage, etc.

In these countries, such things are rare to unheard of. So those marriages work because the women have no other choice. To disobey their husbands in the lease would bring down the husbands wrath, with little or no recourse for the woman.

Surly you would not want to live you life as someones property. While things are far from perfect here, I think you'll agree that they could be far far worse.

I agree with the fact in these countries the
woman have fewer rights than the men so they
accept marriage a lot better, as is the custom.
However in the states the women are more
self independent and do have rights and be-
cause now-a-days marriage is not taken
seriously in America a lot end up in divorce.
