Re: PLEASE give me the number for any rishta aunty/lady you know…
It must be very hard for your mother, but you must remain her source of determination. It’s hard anyways to find a marriage proposal, let alone a suitable one, for both boys and girls so you are not alone.
Try to interact with the people socially, go to social gatherings that you and your mother can easily attend. Trusting too much on rishta aunties and even online websites is not a good idea. For some these avenues work like charm and for others it takes ages. Most of the aunties are only interested in taking their fee and don’t care what happens to their clients. There was a thread here where a rishta aunty would take her fee and then ask the parents to wait for her call about a suitable match and then she never called.
The best solution is to use all possible avenues: rishta aunties, online website, friends & family circle, social gatherings, even talk to someone at local Islamic center.
And you should be thankful if someone backs out now because of idiotic reasons (height, complexion), its better to take it now than suffer after the marriage.
