Hello everyone!

I hope you all are safe and doing fine.

Today's topic might sound cliché to you all, but I just want to write on this hoping that it might help someone to have their opinion on this. So, without wasting any more time, let's start. As we grow up and we cross our teenage years, and enter adulthood, around 22-25 age, the topic of marriage is introduced in our lives, and our parents become ardent on getting us married as soon as possible. And here comes the problem of arranged marriage or love marriage, means which one is better, or in which one we can have a safe, happy and secure future. Some parents agree and let their children marry someone of their interest, but some don't. Those favoring love marriage have their own reasons and the same goes for those favoring arranged marriage. I believe that's a completely debatable topic on which debates might never end. The points I will be sharing with you is my take on this topic.

Some of the parents believe that the match they will choose for their children would be best for them. And their children, if they have already chosen someone as their life partner, think that marrying them would be better because they have known their partner for a time, so they can trust on them. Who do you think is right, or wrong?

I often think in which type of marriage one can have a better future, and then, a number of questions arise in my mind. But, no matter how much I think of it, one thing I have realized is that there is no guarantee of a better future in either of them. And my answer for the question I raised above is that none of them is right because there can be mis-happening in any or both the marriages. Some things are not in our hands, and those can happen in any marriage. And the things which we can avoid, or we are responsible for, might also happen.

There are thousands of couples who have married out of love, and live a more than happy life. But, in some cases, even in a love marriage, where you have been together for years, your partner can betray you. And as far as arranged marriage is concerned, you can fall in love after marriage with your husband, even when you have not known him for years. And in some other case, where your parents have got you married to someone of their choice, your marriage may not turn out to be successful as your parents think. It all depends on the situation, fate, and destiny. Anything can happen with anyone. Sometimes, even when you make decisions wisely, something wrong might happen to you. And this applies to marriage also.

Moreover, I believe that we all should never ever take decisions like this under any pressure. Think properly before you come to any conclusion, as you can put your life at stake with just one wrong decision.

(I repeat that was my stand on this topic.)

Thank you.
