well sometimes parents don't understand..and sometimes you have to decide what you want in life, hence why people act the way they do when they're in love. But ofcourse we shouldn't blindly be in love with someone, we should use our mind and be rational as well. My parents struggled a lot to get married..and my mom had to deal with the saas drama..but both my parents shifted to America shortly after marriage so they didn't have to deal with unhappy parents or anything like that. They're still going strong masha'Allah. I think if you really use your head and are willing to be with that person in rough times and good times, love marriages will work. :)
Arranged marriages work too, but from what I've seen, people compromise and accept the person as they are, they just settle, and they believe so and so is good because everyone around them likes them. My sister had an arranged marriage, and the guy is great, but I know he isn't the type of guy she wanted, but since my parents and everyoneee loves him, and because he's so layaak, she compromised and accepted him.
read an article that gazing into someone’s eyes without speaking for 8 seconds invokes feeling of love…Go figure
I’ll try to post it…its in PDF
besides…only true love exists b/w Allah and his creations and parents and children
baaki saab life hai… live, cry, laugh, love… in the end… all the same
so lets stop dwelling on pyaar ke chakar and go help our country..show some love and send some tents…water, and food for our countrymen displaced in the floods
if you have an idealistic view of love... then yes, u will face confusion once you are married.
If you are realistic about love and the expectations of ur loved ones ... and the ones you love, you wont be disappointed.
And to say that love should be without and conditions, that is hardly possible... the only love that is unconditional is the love you have for a child... and every other love, asks for a condition. Even the love we have for God, is based on conditions.... to an extent.
