How about NO resumes (not a job interview, folks), and people just redt each other shidduchim because they think of someone nice who might be good for someone else. How about no checking up ad nauseum, to find out what the potential boy or girl’s father’s best friend’s second cousin does for a living? How about no more nonsense about what type of shoes, tablecloth, dishes, and dress size the mother has? How about people just thinking of the single people they know who might be a good “fit,” and let the couple decide? It worked really great in the past. It wasn’t “broke” and shouldn;t have been “fixed.” That, in my honest (and not perceived as humble) opinion, is why we have a shidduch crisis today (or at least is in the Top Three reasons).
