Both cases seem plausible. Love comes in many shapes and sizes, it shouldn't matter how it's interpreted.
You have to have a solid reason for marrying someone...it's not a game nor a child-like decision. It's a lifetime decision to be make..so don't fool around !!
I can relate from personal experience. My marriage was an arranged marriage. My mom introduced my wife to me back in 06. Met her for THREE hours, then I got married. I regret it ever since! the only thing I'm happy about is having our 9 month old son, Kevin. without him, I'd divorce by now. But I love Kevin and wouldn't want to do that to him. In our marriage, there's a lot of misunderstanding, and we (she?) lacks respect for me. She holds on tight to her family side. There's also this huge cultural gap between us. If I had to do it all over, I'd like to meet someone on my own instead.
I'm with my friend on this one. I don't like neither arranged marriage nor a marriage of love. It should at least be a civil union before anything, and vows to be joined together in a free and individualistic society always end in disaster -- which is why the US has around a 50% divorce percentage for all couples.
I prefer arrange marriage but some time love marriage if our love is true. because when create some problem in love marriage, nobody help us. love marriage like good for some time but when create there are some problem we can't do anything. because on that time nobody help us. if your love is true your partner always with you. and never heart you.
