Help me understand why I am getting rejected.

Hi,

I feel like I’m getting rejected by girls, and I’m trying to understand what could be wrong.

I’m 25M, 5’7”+, working as an SDE, and I earn well enough. I work in hybrid mode. I’m Maharashtrian, my office is in Pune, but my hometown is in Gujarat near Ahmedabad. I wear glasses, have a fair skin tone, and I consider my looks above average.

I don’t drink or smoke.

My parents are looking for a match from Maharashtra, so I’ve concluded that the possible reasons for rejection at the biodata stage could be:

  1. My height

  2. I wear glasses

  3. My hometown is in Gujarat despite being Maharashtrian

*My parents are searching through family, friends and whatsapp groups.

Hi, I'm Maharashtrian, based out of Gujarat near Ahmedabad, and working in Pune.

I’m an SDE, and I come from a humble family background. I will be honest, my family is a bit conservative.

Most of the time, I’m a bit of a boring person when I’m alone, but I become more lively when I’m with friends or family.

I’m looking to meet someone who’s a working professional, independent in her own way, and values honesty and loyalty. Not asking for much but we should genuinely enjoy each other’s company. If that’s there, we’ll figure everything else out together.

If this felt even a little relatable, that's probably a sign.

I am a 25M. I am 5'7" and consider myself above average (but looks are subjective though). I work as a SDE and earn well enough.

I am looking for someone with a decent looks and family background and I prefer a working professional (cherry on a cake if the work location is same as mine)

It has been 5-6 months since my parents started looking for a potential partner for me, mostly through relatives and family WhatsApp groups.

I did find some matches I was interested in, but in most cases it never reached the talking stage. There were also some matches where I was not interested, but my family and relatives kept pushing me. However I got out of those situations and pressure somehow.

You can call me delusional, but I believe I will find someone who’s right for me. By “right,” I don’t mean perfect but just someone I genuinely enjoy spending time with.

My family is trying hard to find a match for me. My parents prefer someone from a known family background, and I understand their perspective. They’re hesitant about completely unknown families because of some negative experiences they’ve seen in our neighborhood, and their concerns are valid.

Because of this I sometimes wonder whether I’ll be able to find someone I truly want to be with through an arranged marriage.

Should I start using dating apps or matrimony sites?

But I am just a little skeptical of it.
