“I’ve observed that the girls are much more willing to give things a chance and consider Shidduchim even if its not their fantasy Shidduch.”
I completely disagree. IMO girls are far less likely to agree to a second date than guys are, most guys feel that it’s not right to say no to a second date unless you can tell 100% that there’s no way the Shidduch will work (e.g. embarrassed to be seen with the girl. Many girls on the other hand believe that everything has to be perfect on the first date and will say no b/c of something ridiculous like the guy not answering one of their questions with the exact answer they wanted. Once you get past the second date and presumably the issue of attraction is out of the way, girls are also more likely to end things b/c something wasn’t perfect. Of course there are many good reasons not to continue to go out with someone but from what I’ve seen/heard in the cases where everything seems to be compatible, it’s almost always the girls ending it and. I know that I’m biased b/c I am a man and I am basing part of my opinion on my own experiences and those of my friends but all you have to do is talk to some shadchanim and I think you’ll find most would agree with me. I’m not trying to say that guys are perfect, I’ll agree that there are plenty of guys who act like idiots when dating.
