arranged marriages

Arranged marriages are a type of marital union where families, rather than the individuals getting married, play a significant role in selecting a partner. This practice is common in various cultures worldwide, often emphasizing familial approval, social status, and shared values. While some arranged marriages are based on the couple's compatibility and mutual consent, others may involve less direct input from the individuals. The goal is typically to ensure a stable and supportive partnership, and many arranged marriages can be successful, with couples developing love and respect over time.
