It says something about you that this is your perspective!

> People marry who they fall in love with and love is purely emotional.

These are two different assertions, both of which would require substantiation. I've known many people who married partners who they seemed not particularly to like, either out of habit, a sense of obligation, cultural pressure, poor self-image, etc. Of course, it's always easy to say "I saw the signs long ago" when a marriage goes south—but honestly, haven't you?

"Love" is a vague concept which could mean many things, any number of which could be components of a successful marriage. Discerning which of these attributes were important to the partners in a marriage is one of the things that makes it interesting to get to know other couples...and can certainly tell you something about their values.
