Viva-aah

Why do people get into an arranged marriage? Why doesn't everyone find their own soulmate and then get married?
Is it because they are afraid of major decisions in life? That they will be fully responsible for any marital "failure" with no one else to blame?
Well... loving someone takes a lot of your emotional energy, time and nurturing and compromising and dreaming and believing. It is complicated and you have to devote urself. People don't have that much time and courage. They want to "get over with it" and "carry on with life". They want a framework, a template to live in, with milestones set by parents, society that they just have to follow. Simple right? They can do it their eyes closed.
So why make an investment to love someone?

I think it is so just that they do not suffer heartaches -not everyone is equally strong you see, not everyone can/want to suffer lonliness your see, not everyone can deny the obvious you see and not everyone has the courage to come out of the safe zone of being rejected you see! :)
