Arranged marriages are good at all times. Bonding with family members is still good in India. Elders will have more affection with youngsters without selfish motives. Westerners feel as a burden if youngsters live together with their parents after certain age. But in India, children will not be sent out until they settle in life. Elders will feel it as their responsibility to arrange children's marriage and provide them good advise on how to maintain the family tradition. Elders will be supportive to children until their death. Children also will love to live together.

Still arranged marriages are not outdated in India. Children, even if they select their pair, it will be informed to parents. Then parents will Analise the family background and character of the pair. If suitable, parents will mostly arrange for the marriage. Parents will not object. Parents will use many technologies to decide the compatibility. Status, education, culture, character, nature, health conditions etc. were few for verification.

Since youngsters have no experience, they can not do good selection. Parents alone can select a good partner. So arranged marriage alone is good. If youngsters are not having parents to select, then a suitable close relation or friend who are well wishers can do the selection. Now, mostly youngsters are selecting their match and informing to parents. Then parents are studying fully and arrange the marriages. Most of the parents are accepting the selection.

Most of the diverse cases are because of immature selection of their partners.

I am not against to personal selection. But, it should be finalized by parents or elders. Elders advise will be more helpful for the couples future life. Since such practice is still in India, diverse cases are also less here. It is common to see most of the couples here will be living without changing their partners until death. Indian male will expect their wife should be a virgin while marriage and both will live together with affection till death.
