What is the percentage of failures in arranged marriage in India?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are some basic facts to be considered first of all. That, from the puberty, till the age of marriage, many youngsters suppress their desires set by the nature. In other words, sex starvation is ridiculously high in India.

Often, other difficulties in life too makes everyone inclined to have a soul mate, other than major love affairs that starts by physical attraction. So, in brief, any marriage, not arranged, can't be addressed as love marriage, because, few of them make a bond of love, while others will have their own reasons to find a partner by themselves.

Considering the deep sense of love leading to marriage, is often been a success all the time and others ends up in failure.

In brief, love marriages are always a success, and in India, all marriages other than arranged are not clearly a bond of love and rather, a physical attraction only. Infact, arranged marriages are too prone for failure and recent surveys shows dangerous reports for divorce rates in India.

Why are arranged marriages bad?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Usually, arranged marriages forces the communion of two incompatible human beings and they a thereby forced to spend their lives together. In most cases these marriages are brutally unhappy because of the lack of true love and affection that comes from falling in love with someone in natural way.

One can only imagine being deprived of the natural emotion of falling in love. Most of us have felt it before and its truly an incredible feeling. That feeling that nothing else matters besides that single person you are so deeply in love with. In arranged marriages, the couples have to separate themselves from this wonderful emotion, unless they actually manage to fall in love with one another.

How often does arranged marriage occur?

Asked by Wiki User

They were status-Quo in medieval Europe particularily among the Nobility.l The unwritten rule was nobody was to marry outside their caste or social ranking.In some ways, this backed up the custom. Joe Doaks the farmer could not come near Princess , shall we say Anastasia. In the armed forces- marriages could only be between officers of the same rank category- For example a Lieutenant could not Marry a Sergeant ( one party would have to be a Wac, Wave, or equivalent, we are not considering homosexual unions here. This restriction on social partners has a sort of un-American ring, and outside of the Armed Forces , it is not practiced. Of course in some countries, there was a flip side, a Woman who ( civil here) would marry a Field Grade officer- such as a Major, would automatically become a Contessa! Not a bad idea, never would work in US, as we do not have titled nobility.

Why do some cultures still arrange marriages?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In countries where arranged marriages still occur, they are usually still prevalent BECAUSE they work. A failed marriage is frowned upon in such societies, to the extent where in some cases a woman can be injured, disfigured or even killed for trying to escape the marriage or committing adultery. In some cases, though, love, or something that looks like it, can develop between the two, and in time they may not have an issue with the fact that their parents arranged the marriage.

What do jews believe in marriage?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

First: It is a very beautiful ceremony. Second: It has very important significances. Third: it pleases the Jewish relatives and Christians like it too because it honors God almighty. Some mixed religion couples will use a Rabbi and a Christian Minister at the same time. They also sometimes choose to do both styles of ceremonies at the same time. Personally, even though I am a born again Christan I prefer the Jewish Ceremony.

Can you marry your third cousin in Texas?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Marriage of Cousins in TexasYes and no. The law was amended a few years ago to prohibit marriage of first cousins, and the application for a marriage license requires each applicant to mark "true" or "false" to a question asking if the applicants are cousins. But, a marriage resulting from fraud or mistake in the application is not void, so if you lie on the application, you can be prosecuted for perjury, but still, apparently, validly married, although there don't seem to be any court cases interpreting the statute. It is hard to believe that this was an intended result, so one would think that either the Texas legislature or the courts would do something to alter this outcome.

"I thought priscilla met Elvis at age 12 and that they had an arranged marriage

and very long courtship because of her age."

Negative, Priscilla was 14 when they met. There was no "arranged marriage", they were arrangements for him to see her. In actuality they didn't even have sex until they were married, in which Priscilla was 21 or 22 at the time.
