would you marry someone you didn't "love" because your parents chose them for you and you can't come up with any earthly reason except "but I don't think it'll work out" for saying no...???
i'm wondering just what it is that people "see" in an arranged marriage... how does one check for compatibility, common interests, that elusive 'spark' when both are under pressure and performing a role in accordance with society's wishes???
but then, how much do you really know a person even when you've been dating for a while??
Does that "kissed till their senses swam, and she swooned in his arms" chemistry really exist????
love stories really do generate unrealistic expectations...

yeah annie they do...love stories do generate unrealistic expectations and reading and believing that mills n boons romances will actually turn out to be true or even a possibility of them turning out to be true can wreak havoc with the little joys of real world relationships that exist.Lets accept it that not all relationships are perfect and not all partners are as romantic as played by the heroes of mills and boons novels. its best to cherish what you have rather than running after something that just might turn out to be a mirage. :)
