Is it weird that I would agree to an arranged marriage if I was single?

I wouldn't force it upon the other person, I would only agree if they agreed too.

Truth be told no.

I sometimes think that an arranged marriage is better. I say this because you get to choose a woman who you interact less and then marry them.

While when you are dating someone you share every aspect of your life with them before marriage and then comes a point where they make it stale even if you continue to have topics to discuss. This leads to a slowdown in the relationship and "bad sex" is what they come up with in the end.

I could be wrong but this is my personal opinion

@Billybob2 I'm assuming you're from the states. Right?

I'm not here to say that arrange marriages are way better. Everything has its perks and flaws. But I have seen people madly in love and come up with an excuse that "love" faded away or we grew apart. That's not true because if you love someone you'll fight for them. You won't give up on them.

Let's say I have a kid. I love my kid unconditionally. Kids love you for a certain age and then they change when they grow up but I would still love my kid. I would fight my ass off and give my fucking life for my kid. Now that's love. Not finding a lame excuse to give up on the person.

@Beatbox34 Yeah, I'm from the states. I'm just saying if I would have had to be in an arranged marriage, I wouldn't have been upset about it.

@Billybob2 I'm not against falling in love but from what I witnessed and this is my perspective that people have the idea of falling in love with a person for a sense of fulfilment of some sort. Those people will never attain a fulfilment but they may make someone's life miserable.

People use this and destroy lives. I genuinely feel sorry for the kids who grow up in such environments and spread this

You can still end up madly in love with the other person you never know. There was a couple from Iran who met each other through an arranged marriage and they both decided that it could work and they ended up falling in love. They were futured on this page called Humans New York, they actually went to Iran to film with random people there, not exactly film they stop you, take a picture then ask you to talk about yourself, goals, dreams etc.
