Which is better: an arranged marriage or a love marriage?
In western society, we view arranged marriages as outdated, and heinous in some cases. However, I believe that in doing so, we disregard many important aspects of an arranged marriage. Statistically, an arranged marriage has a lower likelihood of divorce. I believe this is due to these pairings' heightened sense of commitment. Driven by culture, these couples have a sense of duty towards marriage. Arranged couples begin a marriage without love, and expect it to last a lifetime. They are statistically more likely to make it last a lifetime! It’s hard to believe that these couples never grow to love each other. I’m sure that many grow to love each other unconditionally. So, this practice seems to do a better job of upholding the permanence of marriage. Which, really is the entire concept of marriage outside of religious factors. But, I don’t know that arranged marriages are the better practice.
