The answer

If the means for marriage, for which Allah has been consulted (through Istikhara), become available, and your heart does not turn away from it, then do not hesitate. Resolve the matter and rely on Allah, for the does not stipulate a feeling of contentment (in the heart). Your Istikhara is a sign of your happiness, and the Istikhara of others cannot replace it.
