Love grows in commitment's embrace after the storms of stress

Research indicates that in arranged marriages, love tends to surpass that of love marriages around the five-year mark, with arranged marriages showing significantly higher love levels by ten years. This phenomenon arises because couples in love marriages often rely on their romantic feelings to navigate stress and conflict, which can diminish over time due to life’s challenges. In contrast, arranged marriages inherently begin with a strong commitment, providing a stable foundation that helps couples weather difficulties and maintain love despite the stressors they encounter.
