Marriage is a big decision and when it comes to an arranged marriage, the idea of sharing life with a stranger is scary. However, this age-old method of meeting your soulmate doesn't mean you are giving up on love. Sometimes, life gives you surprises and things don't turn out the way you expected. However, one should never give up on love. Shahid Kapoor and Amrita Rao looked adorable when they met for the first time in Vivah as Do Anjaane Ajnabi played in the background but things are different in real life. While there are many successful stories of arranged marriage, some people have horror stories too.

It is very easy to get distracted by the circus of looking at various boys but you have to be clear what you are looking for in your life partner. To help you out, we have listed five important things that you should keep in mind before saying yes to an arranged marriage:

Don't get married before knowing that person very well. Give him a considerable amount of time. Go on dates, speak your heart out and don't forget to be friends first. After all, pyaar dosti hai....

Whatever you do, don't forget that it's your families business too. People will be involved right from the beginning. So, always remember you are responsible for all your actions.

We have grown up thinking about our sapnon ka rajkumar but the other person isn't aware of your expectations. So don't think that he'll know everything without you saying it. However, you should understand that reality is far different from our Bollywood fantasies.

Shah Rukh said in Dear Zindagi, don't let your past ruin your future. Everybody has a past and your partner has all right to know about it. If he can't accept it, he doesn't have the right to be in your future. Same goes for you, don't judge the other person. It takes courage to open up about something terrible that has happened.

Love doesn't happen within minutes. It takes time to develop. If you genuinely like someone and think that he may be the right one then don't rush into things. Marriage means loving and choosing the same person every day. It may sound bizarre, love can happen in an arranged marriage too.
