Chayei Sarah: How To Get A Good Spouse https://youtu.be/QMEr7FFT7o4

Chayei Sarah 24: וְאָנֹכִי, לֹא יָדָעְתִּי3 אֲשֶׁר לֹא-תִקַּח אִשָּׁה, לִבְנִי, מִבְּנוֹת הַכְּנַעֲנִי, ...אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי יוֹשֵׁב בְּקִרְבּוֹ. Vayeitze 28:16 אָכֵן יֵשׁ יְהוָה בַּמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה; וְאָנֹכִי, לֹא יָדָעְתִּי. 
The Chasam Sofer darshens on 28:16 -אָנֹכִי "Anochi" as referring to selfishness. Where is G-d, אָכֵן יֵשׁ ה׳ בַּמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה? Where there is no selfishness וְאָנֹכִי, לֹא יָדָעְתִּיThere seems to be a contradiction between two expressions about women. One one hand we have "מוֹצֵא אִשָּׁה מָצָא טוֹב" in Proverbs 18:22 "If you find a woman, you have found good." On the other hand we have in Ecclesiastes 7:26 "I have found the women more bitter than death." "וּמוֹצֵא אֲנִי מַר מִמָּוֶת, אֶת־הָאִשָּׁה". Which is it? 
Listen to find out what makes the difference between a good wife and a bitter wife.
