Those of us who were blessed well could see the intimacy and stability that our grandparents have had shared. We have seen how one refuses to remarry even if other takes leave for the heaven. Though we have live examples on how our grandparents and our parents have had arrange marriages and how indubitably they have been able to make it this far together. But the burning question is - Are we ready to accept someone whom our parents might choose for us just as their parents chose for them?

The argumentative issue of arranged or love marriage still stands without a clear winner. Let’s have a conversation on this topic while the coffee is being sipped.

One may play safe and rely on family to fetch a good match for life-time. Depend on Kundli matching and other astrological stuff to finalize the harmony in the marriage without even meeting the person once. The obvious plus point being saving you from courtship and having support of the family .At times it may also save you from disinheritance .The other side of coin also shows the cases of women living lethargically in abusive relationships in order to shade the family from disgrace of becoming the talk of the society. You are free to add in your side of perspective.

Love marriage on the other hand will make you in charge of your decision for life. You may either be envied for or blamed for choosing your own life partner. Situations like deciding the preference of partner over your family may shake your relationship with those who are the reason of your existence in this world. But if acceptance is not an issue, still issues of life-style changes have been observed in inter-caste marriages.

Your coffee has finished and we still can’t decide what to choose out between arranged or love marriage.

Try having another cup but the debate just won’t come to an end.
