Marriage clearly as arranged marriages are an outdated concept that does not work.

@SW-User By your definition love marriages should be working greatly but reality shows high divorce rate. Arrange marriages with consent are no outdated concept. It's not a forced marriage.

Okay yeah that’s what I meant, if it is not a forced marriage then it is fine. But I believe in love marriages. @SW-User

The arrange marriages only work cause people expect them not to divorce when they might want to, I’d rather loved marriages be divorced, cause atleast they know whilst Married they know what love is, and might continue their friendships down the track and healthy for their children.@SW-User

@SW-User I have to wonder if the reason there are fewer divorces in arranged marriages than in love marriages has less to do with what brought the couple together, and more to do with the the limited access to divorces in those countries still practicing arranged marriages...?

Or they don’t divorce for the well being of the children, so that they can have a good upbringing with not a broken family, even though the spouse and husband may hate one another.@Mona86

But at times I think that’s worse cause there’s tension between the partners and their children know @SW-User

@Mona86 I do too. If it got that bad w my future wife then I would leave her, so she could be happy.
