Should I marry for love or prioritize financial stability through an arranged marriage?

I'm in love with a guy, and we've been in a relationship for about 7-8 months. Recently, my parents started pressuring me for marriage through arranged means, so I felt it was necessary to inform them about my relationship. They're opposed to it because my boyfriend currently doesn't have a stable job, and neither he nor his family possesses significant assets. There are also concerns about our different castes, how I would fit in, and what society might think. Initially, I was alright with his financial situation. We discussed it, and he’s actively working towards finding a better job. But now, I find myself thinking more practically. What if he doesn't secure a better position? What if he struggles to support his family? That thought has been weighing on me. Now I’m torn between staying with the man I love or opting for an arranged marriage with someone who has a solid financial background. What should I do?
