Choosing someone to marry is a hard decision, but the criteria for choosing the partner is difference. Some like to choose their partner by themselves but some want their parents to choose for them. For me I prefer love marriage. Even though it hard but I want to do it by myself because he is the one that I’m going to marry and spend my life with. So I believe in myself to make the decision about my marriage and I’ll be the one who respond for my decision.
First of all I believe that I have freedom to do everything that I want but under the law. If it is legal, I have a right to do. So I have a right to decide about my life. I have a right to love and choose someone to be my partner. Because I’m the one that going to live with him after marriage not my family or my parent. I can’t stand to live with a man that I never know and never spend time with. What if I find out that he is not the one that I’m looking for after we got marriage? Who going to take the responsibility? Like in View 2 of arrange marriage said, I have the freedom to succeed and the freedom to fail, but either way, I’m responsible. Therefore, we don’t want someone else to take responsibility for that most personal decisions such as who I’m going to marry. One quote in Khmer language said “Marriage with the one

How can anyone else know about myself better than me when it’s about my life? I have to put my own desire first. I have to listen to my own feeling to choose my own spouse. How can I trust someone that I never know and decide to live with him because I have to listen to my parents or families? Once my Mom said to me she could only give a life to me but I’m the only one that live that life so you can decide what you want to do or what you want your life to be. Just as in paragraph 6 said, How can anyone else understand what will make myself feel trust, genuine concern, love and a shared sense of
The Lord undoubtedly desires for everyone to follow Him, yet because of the decision He gives us, many choose not to seek Him. This privilege of choice also pertains to marriage, because God is the originator of all marriages. Without freedom of choice, everyone would become robotic and programmed taking away the creativity and uniqueness of life and resulting in a boring and dull existence. Due to the absence of choice, arranged marriages must be
Both arranged marriages and romantic marriages have good and bad points. Cultures such as India, Japan, and Ethiopia have had arranged marriages since the dawn of time. In America we allow our young adults to make their own decisions on whom to marry. Would Americans accept the practice of parents deciding whom they are going to marry without considering their wants or feelings? The answer is an emphatic NO! Americans are hopelessly romantic and fiercely believe in freedom of choice. Arranged marriages would never be accepted in American culture.
Since God first blessed humankind with the gift of marriage, many have celebrated the joyous event, expressing the devotion and commitment premised upon love emulating the unity found in the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God expressed Himself to man and women by giving them relationship. God’s intention for marriage between man and women is to endure a lifetime of togetherness for the two partners. A man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, becoming one flesh and with this, let no person separate what God has joined.
Marriage was not just for convenience, it was instituted by God. While being instituted by God, there are three important aspects. First the man would leave his parents and in a public act would promise himself to his wife. Second, the man and woman are joined together by taking responsibility for each other’s welfare and by loving the mate above all others.... ...
Nowadays we live in a world which is full of choices and the choice of the person you would like to merry is one of the most important one. It is really hard to decide whether this person is really “yours” or it is just the illusion. Thus, can it be a better way to have somebody who decides who will you be married to? Some people think it is unfair because person doesn’t have the right of choice but the others think that arranged marriages are a good choice. Free choice marriage is a marriage in which both partners choose each other by themselves and the choice is based on factors such as physical attraction, the desire for emotional stability, love, similar outlooks, personalities, interests etc. However this is not the only way to choose. In arranges marriages the partner is selected by elder family members but the young people may have the right to veto the choice if they strongly disagree with it. There are definitely pros and cons of both and only after taking them into consideration person can decide which to choose: arranged or free choice marriage.
In conclusion, arranged marriages are not based on love and your choice of spouse, but what families believe is best for you and would fit you best.

What does it mean to talk about ethnicity as an option for an individual? Mary C. Waters address the importance of this question in Optional Ethnicities For Whites Only. She argues how having choice in ethnic identity is the opposite of the idea we perceive; “that one’s identity is a fixed characteristic, reflective of blood ties and given at birth”. Yet there are two major options Waters describes as for White Americans: (1) the option whether to claim any specific ancestry, or to just be “White” or American, or (2) the choice of which European ancestries to include in their description of their identities. These two options exist only for White Americans.
The parental involvement of the marriage or becoming of the marriage can help the marriage last. When the parents are involved with finding someone for their child to marry
Traditional arranged marriages were arranged by the parents. They arranged the child's future spouse with little or no input from the child being taken as having final authority ("Arranged marriage"). If the child refuses the choice of their parents, the parents may choose another possible spouse or the child may be punished or disowned (or in rare cases, killed accidentally in the heat of passion or intentionally with legal authority to do so). In traditional arranged marriages, the child had no real input in the wedding. They have no say in who they will marry.
Marriages have been an important part of the human race from the start of humanity. There are many types of marriages these range from arranged marriages to marriages where spouses get to choose one another. Conflicts can be bad but they can also help guide a person into who they want to marry. Most people when marrying want to marry someone with similar beliefs and likes. A smaller amount of people consider religion an important part of marriage, especially marrying someone of the same religion.

At no point in life can you be perfect at anything, but you can prepare yourself for the adventures of life. One of life’s biggest challenges is marriage. Marriage requires preparation, emotionally and spiritually. Marriage is considered to be one of the hardest aspects of life to control. Merging two different customary lifestyles into one can be difficult, especially since the feelings of both are involved.
It must be made and planned very carefully with family’s approval and satisfaction. Marriages are relied on trust, good understanding, and love. When a couple is happy in their relation, they would do anything to last their relation for lifetime. This is not the case in arrange marriages because the foundation in this kind of bond is not love, it is a kind of imposed contract to just live with one another. Life without love is like a body without soul as was reiterated by Mahatma Gandhi as well. He once said “Where there is love, there is life”. It means love is needed along with trust and understanding to live life fully. Therefore, adults should be given chance to choose love marriage over arrange
