It's hard to realize that we don't measure up to someone's standards... but just remember that those standards are not linear. (Linear being, the person who rejects you wants an 88 or above and you only score 72.) It's not a matter of you being not good enough. It's just two shapes, encountering one another in a chance collision in outer space... and it's really no wonder when those random shapes happen not to be corresponding.
You know, I really wish more people listened to their own hearts on that level. When people do get real hung up on image first, care more about the other person being a trophy wife or husband, and unfortunately from society's pressures it happens a lot; they're really denying their own happiness.
