If you think that falling in love with a guy = a succesful marriage that is WRONG. Marriages based on emotion fall apart. Because when real life confronts you, and things become complicated, Mr. Nice Guy becomes Mr. Tense and Stressed out…. What happened to that sweet guy you fell in love with? All the young couples who got divorced – did they not feel in love with the guy when they got engaged? Some people may have been pushed into a shidduch, buy many people got engaged to the wrong people simply because they fell in love. Getting engaged has two components – feeling a connection (love), and logically evauluating if you two share common goals, and can last in a marriage, through thick and through thin. The second component is just as important as the first, if not more important.
