21st Century Literature - Essay

Arranged Marriage


Arrange marriage is the wedlock without love between husband and wife but rather an agreement that involves other reasons such as political interest and elevation of social status and such. What will be my stand regarding this idea? What can happen in an arranged marriage?
I don’t agree on the idea of arranged marriage because there are many possible problems that can happen in the long term. First is the arranged couple, they will live an unhappy life being wedded to a person they don’t love. There will be no joy waking up in the morning married to a stranger. Another problem is, throughout the whole process, the marriage will not work out because there is no sincerity. Last possible problem is commitment. Without love, there will be cheating and philandering. It will be possible that there will be no trust, faith and commitment to both parties.  Yes, arranged marriage in some situations can be an advantage like strengthening of family ties and political interests but we have to take in mind the lives of the couple.
We should choose on whom we want to spend our lives with, not our parents, not our society and certainly not our situations. I can’t imagine a life being arranged married to a person that I don’t love, it will be a disaster for sure because I am a really hopeless romantic person. I can only think about my future children growing up in a loveless household, such a pity. I don’t want them to grow-up with parents who are together because of an arrangement rather than love.
Love is something that can’t be forced. It happens in the right moment, in the right time and to the right person chosen by your heart, not by someone else.
