A definition of arranged marriages is, when two people are married because their parents decided that they would. However, the people the marriage is being arranged for do get a say, they get introduced to each other weeks before, it's not a blind wedding, you get to know them before hand, and also, if one of them strongly didn't like the other person, they are not forced to get married. This is where many people are mistaken: ARRANGED MARRIAGE IS NOT THE SAME AS A FORCED MARRIAGE. I think that there are mixed feelings about whether you would love someone that was chosen for you more than if you chose them yourself. The disadvantages of arranged marriages are: you don't really know your husband/wife; you probably will take a while to get relaxed around them, but it is believed that love comes after marriage. This is because the parents choose the husband/wife on horoscopes, their background, how they were raised, etc. and they pick people who are very similar, have very similar backgrounds and who are likely to get on well. love, hope :)

∙ 10y agoSome pros of an arranged marriage are:
1) you don't have to go through the heartache of being dumped.
2) you expect your parents to choose someone who's perfect for you, which saves you the work.
3) you don't waste time dating a bunch of losers before you finally find the right guy.
Some cons of an arranged marriage are:
1) if you fall in love with someone your parents don't approve of, you can't marry him or her.
2) you don't get to experience the whole exciting falling in love process, with butterflies in your stomach, wondering if he's thinking about you.
3) you might not like the people your parents choose.
