He illustrates that the main way to have a marriage that works is to work at it, not by finding M. Right, and letting everything fall naturally and beautifully into place. However, it's still much nicer if the two people are initially drawn together by a mutual attraction that would have a chance to grow as their life together progresses, rather than by an "arrangement".
