marriages

In my country, Many people still get married arranged marriages with assistance their
family and relatives. However many of them also have good relationships for many years.
For instance my father and mother have married for fifty years. They still fall in love. It is
very strange to me. Normally We don’t expect that. You don’t know someone and you
spend all your life with her/him. By the way, many of my friends from university fell in love
and they split up in one year. According to other country(USA, EU), Divorce rate of
Turkish family is very less, 21%. Specially some of EU country divorce rate is very
high(Estonia %70 Belgium %65). Generally Turkish people get married one times during
their life. In my country marriage age for man and woman are 26,1 and 22,8. Nowadays it
is also very common in Turkey that people meet their partner by friends meeting, dating
sides, at school, at work. My former girlfriend and I was working for the same company.
We could find a chance to meet with her
