[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like that they show couples that started with arranged marriages and then fell in love but I wonder how often this approach works out? [/quote]

Pretty much always. It's such a different mindset and mode of operation. But they almost always have a lot of love and respect, and they stay married.

And this must be much less true these days, even in india. [/quote]

Almost always? Ha, noooo.  But more often than not it worked out really well and people were as happy as anyone else. Of course in previous generations “worked out” meant just that they stayed together. So there could also be a lot of dysfunction, abuse, etc in a couple that “worked out”. But I would still say that in large part people were not more unhappy than others and certainly (no research to cite), older couples in love marriages may have had to deal with a lot of issues due to how insular things were back then (different castes, languages, not getting parents approval etc).

I know couples who should be divorced because they are just a bad match (no abuse) and I know ones who truly fell in love after marriage. [/quote]
