The most adorable shidduch related story I ever heard goes like this.
A girl (a bit older) shows up to R Moishe Feinstein’s apartment
for a brocho from the Gadol Hador.
Alas there is someone in by the Rosh Yeshiva, and she was told by the Rebetzin that she’d have to wait a few minutes.
The Rebetzin attempting to make small talk with her to pass the time, asks what kind of a brocho she wanted from the R. Y.to which the girl replies she needs a brocho for a shidduch.
The Rebetzin asks her what she’s looking for in a husband.
She replies that she’s looking for a Talmid Chochom.
The Rebetzin continues and asks how old she is. To which the girl responds that she’s 24.
Rebetzin Feinstein looks at her with a twinkle in her eye and asks, “Eib azay, farvuss viltz du an achtzig yerege man?”!!!
(TRANSLATED: If you are 24 why would you want an 80 year old man?)
