While research shouldn’t be completely eliminated, meeting on ones own allows a person to overlook things they wouldn’t have before. Now before you jump on me and say we specifically don’t want them to overlook what they want because it will result in divorce, step back for a second. I am referring to a girl who will only want a guy who is at least 5″10. While she would never listen to any suggestion of a 5″8 boy, she meets one in college…likes him…and she learns that maybe his height isn’t such an important factor. In the case of shidduch dating this wouldn’t happen since she wouldn’t even end up meeting him. Same with a guy who decides he can only marry a size 2 girl and many other cases.
