1. Romantic marriages
Love is a process where the emotions come into play. When the emotions come into
play, they make you think that you should get married to the person you love and spend the
rest of your life with them. Sometimes humans are blindfolded by their emotions and not
thinking straight and about reality. People would think that they should get married to that
person because they love them. Love makes them make quick and foolish decisions; they forget
that marriage is a responsibility. They would start thinking that marriage is an easy and quick
decision to make. Besides loving someone and wanting to spend the rest of their life with them,
they need to think about other things besides love. For example, a person’s behaviour or
personality...etc. Also, they would have to think about the person and how that person would
affect their life if they got married. They need to choose someone who will be able to stand up
with them for the responsibilities and hardships they’re going to face in the future. Romantic
love is a poor basis for marriage.
Romantic love is a poor basis for marriage. Love is not everything in marriage. Loving a
person doesn’t mean that they are the right person for us to get married to. Sometimes when
we want to get married to a person we need to think about other things besides just love alone,
because love is not what makes up a person. We need to think about the future of whether our
love is going to last forever or not. Love doesn’t always last forever because sometimes we love
a person because we were attracted to them. For example, teenage love wouldn’t last forever
because you love a particular person for their looks or maybe other factors that attracted you
to them. You wouldn’t think of the future ahead. When you get older you’ll start realizing and
understanding life more clearly, which will lead you to better choose a person. You shouldn’t
get married to a person just because you love them. Assuming that you are going to have a
good married life because you love a certain person is wrong. Marriage has a lot of
responsibilities, it’s not just love. When choosing a person to get married to, that person should
be reliable and can stand up for you when you have a hard time, rely on each others. You
shouldn’t only look for love to get married, look for other factors that would help you in the
future and make you a successful married couple. Also, in the far future you’ll eventually start
to like the person you’re with, even though you didn’t marry them because of love. Love is a
weak factor to start marriage with.
There is also another position to the argument, Romantic love marriages are sometimes
needed for a successful marriage. Sometimes when we love a person it’s hard for us to get over

2. them. Sometimes when we are in a relationship we feel that we can’t live our life without that
person. Sometimes we can’t live without a certain person which might lead us to be miserable
the rest of our life. If we get married to a person who we don’t like, we wouldn’t have a
successful married life because we are not going to understand each other or have the loving
husband and wife relationship, this might lead to divorce. Married couple need to understand
each other. If you get married to a person who you don’t love it’s going to be like an arranged
marriage. When people get married to love, they’re going to understand each other and know
each other really well. Marring for love is more important than marring for other factors, such
as money, security, or following parents’ wishes, or status. Some people would argue that when
a couple loves each other they can overcome any kind of challenge. Couples who love each
others fight less and make a better atmosphere for each other. If there are children involved,
this is particularly important. Without love what is the meaning of life? Therefore, marriage for
love is critical.
Arguing for both sides have good points, I can’t say that one is better than the other.
Therefore, marriage should include love and every other aspect that might affect both sides.
