Answer 2

It entirely depends on circumstances and the relationship/chemistry between two people. An arranged marriage can also happen by love at first sight. One can also fall in love after an arranged marriage. In certain cultures the marriage is not considered just about two individuals but of entire families as it formally establishes an intricate bond. Many wealthy families also practice arranged marriages in order to secure their businesses and future assets. One has to realize that there is more to marriage than love. Because, after so many years of marriage the dynamics of the relationship is very different between two people that have been living together. It is always better to get to know the person first before jumping into marriage. And, even then there is no guarantee of falling and staying in love. People also get married when they have known each other for years as friends, with trust, care, and respect for one another. But, perhaps, there is an absence of an endearing love between them. Some people do not believe in love while others do. Some people look at marriage as a legal contract. Others, have traditional and religious values attached to the meaning of marriage. In some cultures, the parents choose who their children marry which reduces the chances of falling in love before marriage considerably if their interactions are minimal. It all depends on individual preferences, ideals, feelings, cultural norms, and who they end up meeting in their life. Also, as people grow older the things they value in a relationship can also change. People can also have different changes in their attitudes after marriage. The person you felt you were in love with before marriage could be a completely different person after marriage. Some people do not even value marriage and would rather stay in a relationship without a need for a legal contractual commitment and still be in love.
