Love is good. Though remember to keep your parents and friends informed about who you are seeing and what you are planning. Sometimes emotion can get us carried away therefore its always useful to get a second and rational opinions.
Compatibility is also important if this is going to be a lifelong relationhip.
this reminds me of Anwar Maqsood's interview. He was asked "aap ki marriage love arranged marriage thi ya love?" he said "ghar waley aaj tak yee samajtey hain k arranged thi" :)
NomiCA, Apply what you have learnt about desi girls from Life1. Make an attractive CV and do mention that you won’t be asking your wife to live in joint family, you won’t be forbidding her from doing job, you will be an obedient husband, you won’t be financially supporting your parents, you will be severing all your ties from your family after marriage etc. You will attract innumerable desi girls and they will all FALL IN LOVE with you and you will have to consult us again which girl to choose for marriage
