Anologies for Marriage and love

I was downloading the next episode of Big Bang Theory which has now become my sole source of twenty minutes of healthy humour, an anology came to my mind.
I am a technologist by profession, so with no surprises, my analogies usually will have an actor from there. The analogy that I am blogging about  is Arranged Marriage and "HTTPS" - the secured version of http Protocol. If you do a google search you will understand that for https to work, SSL should be established and kept alive. No data present in the https session will be allowed in http, ofcourse it is secure.

Arranged marriage is similar, the first premise is both the families need to agree and continue it till marriage. In some cases this will include a three to four step protocol of caste match, Sub-Caste match, age match and Horoscope match. Only when this is established do the groom and the bride get to the next level of communication. If by any mis-communication, the initial protocol breaks ( has happened in some of my acquaintances), then communication between bride and groom breaks .

Love marriage on the other hand is like TCP,  both parties agree and communicate . Families dont matter much, its a three way handshake - Guy, girl and at least one family to support

On the other hand one sided love(Usually guy likes the girl but girl does not have the same feeling) is like UDP, there is no acknowledgement, there is no guarantee that the packet is not dropped during transfer.
