Arrange marriage and Love marriage:-

Rohit :- Intro+ marriage is a life long commitment . So, the decision to choose
a life partner should be in one’s own hand.
Rama:- Love is the basis of any marriage. In love marriages, there will be no
question on whether love happens or not.
In Love marriages, the couple knew each other very well and most probably
they already understood each other fully. Hence, there won’t be many conflicts.
Those who want to go for a love marriage have more choices than those who go
for an arranged marriage because arranged marriages mostly happen with
people of the same caste/class/religion.
Debasmita:- Planned love lives results in happy families.
Generally, equality prevails in love marriages.
There are also some disadvantages of Love Marriage the couple who go for a
love marriage is mostly independent. If they want to get out of the relationship,
they do not consider relatives opinions much.
Aparannha:- Love marriages are still socially unacceptable in some parts of
India. That is the reason we are witnessing honour killings. So, it is quite risky
for some people to go for a love marriage.Youngsters may confuse attraction
with love.Love is not the only thing we need in life. One should also check the
reality like the family background, economic conditions, the environment they
grew up in etc.
Subhajit:- There are also some advantages of arranged marriage In Arrange
marriages, parents do inquire about each other’s family and their circle. So,
there is a high probability that one will get into a relationship with a similar
kind of family as theirs. This prevents trusting people blindly, which happens in
some love marriages.Parents or well-wishers think about future and economic
conditions.The couple most likely thinks about both of their families. So, they
will learn to adjust, which is a very good quality for any relationship.
Bipasha/ Somnath:- According to research conducted by Dr Robert Epstein, an
American psychologist, love in love marriages tends to fade away with time,
whereas love in arranged marriages grows with time.
Bipasha:- Every thing has both positive and negative sides, so there are also
some disadvantages of arranged marriage. Arranged marriage is like a lottery.
Love may or may not blossom between the couple.
Shreya:- Some couples will face compatibility issues.The couple does not
know each other well if they spend less time together before marriage. If they
have many differences to the extent that they cannot live together, marriage will
break.Too much submissiveness to elders may restrict couple from divorcing,
even if they do not have love in between them anymore.

Ayan:- Though the divorce rate is less in arranged marriages compared to love
marriages, it cannot be said that they are happily married. In general, some
people who are living in unhappy marriages but are not able to divorce due to
several reasons such as children, societal pressure tend to opt for suicide.
Arpita:- People who go for arranged marriage may not be that comfortable
discussing everything in detail before marriage. This may cause problems after
marriage.In the name of arranged marriages, forced marriages are still prevalent
in many parts of India.
Debakshi (Conclusion):- Whether it is a love marriage or arrange marriage, the
relationship will work only if both the partners are serious and honest in the
relationship. Life partner must be selected according to their own will and not
by force. These days, people are taking time to learn about each other before
marriage even in arranged marriages. This is a sign of a progressive society.
