    How can a single man marry his arranged choice of partner if his heart is loving someone else?

    A single man is not sure of the arranged choice of partner do you think he will marry and be happy with her if his heart is still seeking someone else?

    The question should be "Why marry someone if he loves someone else?". If his heart is not with the person he is marrying, then either the marriage is destined to fail, or their lives are destined to misery.

    Thief is correct. It makes no sense to marry someone if you don't love them even if your family picked that person. It's only one of the reasons arranged marriages seem ridiculous to me. Yes, I know they're a cultural thing and who am I to put down other cultures? I'm just stating my opinion.

    You have to think more aspects in this situations. If a man still seek someone but she may be not available to him, or she loves someone else and want to marry him. In this case, that single man can marry the arranged partner who loves him. Seeking someone and getting her are two different thing, we do not get what we want all the time. So it is good to accept the reality and live happily with your arranged partner.

      A sensible thing to do is to marry and accept but without love that is different. Thank you.

    It really depends on how "married" he his to his culture and customs. If he respects them and does not want to disappoint or disrespect those who made the arrangement then he likely to go through with.
    Only time will tell if he cultivates a deep love for his mate. Odds are if they have children together it will make it that much more difficult for him to leave whether he is happy or not.  With divorce rates as high as they are odds are arranged marriages can't statistically be much worse than "choice" marriages. There are a lot of people who are unhappy after being married a few years. No guarantees in life!

    Depends on so many factors....sometimes the person he loves maynot love him back and the arranged marriage he gets into might get him a great compatible partner....
    On the flip side, he can be miserable for life if he cannot forget his love, even after being married.

      Thank you for answering ''On the flip side, he can be miserable for life if he cannot forget his love, even after being married.'' surely makes sense here
