Bodek, what I tell the girls/boys I work with is this. Take a look outside and see who Hashem has put together. Would you ever dream of making such shiduchim? Maybe what YOU have in mind is contradictory to what Hashem actually has in mind for you. Take a good look in the mirror and ask yourself what are you really turning away? What has Hashem sent your way that you have rejected? Maybe you should take another look at what is being presented to you, maybe you have to look closer, maybe you are looking at the wrong things. And I say what I said here, you can’t change a person from the inside out, but the outside is just a cover and covers can be adjusted. Look at the couples Hashem put together Tall with short, fat with skinny, beautiful with plain jane, not every couple is a reflection of each other and yet they seem to be a perfect match. People are not perfect and yet Hashem manages to make perfect shidduchim. How? You have to look beyond the wrapping, stop being so superficial, you need to polish a diamond to make it sparkle.
