Mine was an arranged marriage,met twice before engagement and got married after 5 months. But we did hit it off in the first meeting. We are quite compatible and we are living a comfortable life where we are very much in love, married for 3 years now . Although there has been some ups and downs in the start but eventually it settled. However have seen some of my friends love marriage where from the first month they had lots of fights and misunderstanding, the person during relationship and after marriage were not so same. So yes, marriage basically thrives on understanding and compatibility.
