Arranged marriages do have benefits, though. I suppose I would rather choose my wife than have her forced upon me, but I suppose if someone can't find a spouse otherwise, they would for sure at least be able to have a family/house/spouse, etc. However, I would focus more on the negatives, like not being able to choose, what if you absolutely hate them, you can't divorce, etc.

I wonder if anyone who had an arranged marriage has ever murdered their spouse? I'm sur eit's probably happened. Would be interesting.
