Re: Arranged marriage trope -- why so popular?

I read some meta on that trope that stuck with me; a very charitable interpretation, leaving aside the sexual stuff, is that Arranged Marriages that work out is basically a fantasy about you/most humans actually being unique, deep-thinking, interesting people that anyone would love if they just took (were made to take) the time to get to truly know them. Y'know? It's actually a very roundabout validation "kink"/human need.
