@roses6564 Well, you don't have to follow any particular religion, but the things that work as far as having a healthy relationship remain the same. Religion or not. Since forever. The 21st century and everything before and after. It hasn't changed. People doing it wrong throughout the years doesn't change that.
I'm not saying an emotional connection is needed for marriage because people do that all the time, but that doesn't make it healthy. If you want to have a fulfilling relationship and you know better, you aren't going to commit yourself to someone that you have no interest in. Would you ever do that?
And regarding following your heart, it's not necessarily a bad thing. It's ok. We have a heart for a reason, and we get enjoyment from following it many times. That scripture is only referring to people who love someone or something that might be bad for you. For example, if a woman feels lots of love for someone who is always abusive to her, and continues following her heart in that case and being with him, then she'll be subjecting herself to more hurt and trauma. Whereas if she resisted her heart in that case, she could free herself of all the hurt, and as a result, she could return to a healthier and happier state.
