How you find your life partner, how it's going on?

Married for 4.5 years. Before roka (finalization) we talked only once over the phone and met once (on the day of roka). When we talked on the phone for the first time we talked for more than 1.5hrs and there were no awkward silences during it. We instantly hit it off and we discussed our family setting, our work life, expectations from future etc. The day we met, I had only one question and that was if she is being pressurized by her family into this or not. After roka, we met like 5 to 6 times before marriage. We used to discuss wedding preparations, future expectations, finances etc.

I consider both of us lucky that we found each other and things are going pretty smooth for us. ♥️

Found each other through an arranged marriage setup. Married for 2 years now.
We spoke on the phone the first time and we kept on talking for >1 hour. It felt exciting and felt like I was talking to a friend I've long known.
We discussed our day to day activities, likes and dislikes, strict no's, future ambitions, etc etc.
Tbh, 'the one' can only be the one when both of you put on efforts like they are the only one for you. I know my partner loves me and puts me before everything else, and I do the same. We've had our fair share of fights but there's never a day I feel like he's the one for me. Instead, each fight gets us to self reflect and do better the next time. You just need to find your common vibe and remember, never take each other for granted.

Arranged marriage is good if you understand her family background and how she is living currently, if the lifestyle of her family and her current lifestyle matches with what you are planning to offer 90% of the tasks done. The majority of issues come when a girl is asked to downgrade her lifestyle.

So when I used to get rishta, I used to go through her, her family and her friends social media accounts to get an idea what she likes, it is a good starting point for the first time talk.

Been married for 1.5 years now. Met through the jeevansathi portal. The first ever call went for 2.5 hours, effortless. We talked everyday for a month, easily 2-3 hours call daily. Showed each others' profiles and family background to our parents. They were fine with everything and the best part was that they didn't want to get involved in the decision process and left it on us saying that it is our life so only we should decide. I was in my hometown due to wfh and she was working in a tier-1. Though one month of talking in and out about every thing from our lives had already given us more than sufficient information to know each other. After a month of talking and video calls, I went to meet her for the first time. No surprises, it was effortless. We met 2-3 times. After my trip we were already sure but we decided to take some more time just so that parents dont think that we are rushing into it. So we continued talking for 3 more months. Then after 3 months, I went back to the city, proposed her, came back to my place and then we told out parents to go ahead and finalize it. Fun fact: her parents came to my place for the first time, directly for roka, and my parents went to see her 4 months after my roka :)
