Yated Shidduch Forum 4/8/22: Are People in Shidduchim Being Overly Picky?

Question:
 
In Rav Chaim Kanievsky on Shidduchim, Rabbi Naftali Weinberger relates that Rav Chaim zt”l said, and I quote, “There is no way to know for sure that this is one’s intended shidduch other than to marry the person.” Furthermore, Rav Chaim said, “Though a Heavenly voice decrees whom one will marry, it is possible for a person to lose his Heavenly intended shidduch by being overly selective.”
 
In your experience, do you find that people are too selective when it comes to shidduchim, and what eitzah is there to get those people to be more open-minded?
