Arranged Marriages In The Modern World

By Jane Muller


The different innovations we see in science and technology nowadays come from different bright minds working together to address mankind's needs.

Such sophistication conquers even the areas of battling food shortage and health awareness. But it drops to an absurd end when relationship to other people becomes the issue. There are many illogical things in life. Sometimes, it's hard to think how people trust each other today and kill each other the next day.

There are norms that are already set in our society a long time ago. But there are also standards set in one's self. Men prefer to marry younger women. But with some beliefs in the community, marriage of two people with significant age gap is considered a "cradle snatchers" act for the older partner.

Arranged marriage is sometimes easier to handle for more innocent women compared to those who are already more experienced in life. The society has already a standard as to when the marrying age is still up especially for the females. But this doesn't mean that when they reach or hadv even outgrown that preferred time, walking down the aisle is already an elusive dream.

Age discrimination is rampant over the companies' workplace. This should not be the case when choosing the partner for life. Having an older wife doesn't imply you don't win the game.

An interesting buyer meets an interesting seller. This has become the game of trade of the once traditional and glamorous marriage arranged especially for two people. Apparently, commercialism and money are already injected to it.

The buying and selling course is even accompanied by a negotiator sometimes. The level of encouragement from all parties is taken to a higher level. Add-ons or promos are offered just like travel opportunities for women.

Once the deal is closed, a new husband and wife are officially declared. And they continue to work on their relationship after that, not in the means of trade, but in the means of friendship and love.
