I have seen both love marriages and arranged marriages in my family. I think the failure rate of love marriage in my family is as high as arranged marriages. Same goes for success rate.
Luckily my parents marriage clicked, despite being an arranged marriage. I have not seen much successful relationships in my family.
I don't think love marriage is all goody-goody. There are lots of reports of girls being duped by persons posing as lovers and later murdered.
This is one reason for which I support live-in relationships. I think a person should live in with different persons(lovers) during his/her lifetime and get to know each other intimately, and confirm whether they really can live together under a single roof. and understand each other really well. Only if the couple feel they suit each other well should they marry.(But then again, I have seen people's lives destroyed after live-ins)
Another important factor in a successful marriage is money.
