    Thanks- that’s a good one.

    That wasn’t even on my mind, at that time I was years away from earning a Ph.D.

    (Pepsi was on sale that week.)

    Mayan, as I was reading it I was thinking the same thing. More in terms of how could someone Dr. Pepper desert his own and buy pepsi. 😉

    guess this is the best place to post it–

    i just think its funny cuz its personal. but its not exactly a shidduch story…

    this happened to me this morning.

    what does one do when someone out of the blue asks them out on a date??

    basically someone stopped me for directions to the belt, and then he goes, btw would you mind going out on a date with me??????? his exact words.

    now, he must have been late 10 to 15 years older than me.

    BYM: your story reminds me of this post:

    I can only try

    Member

    Many years ago, when I was young and single, I was staying at out-of-town relatives over Shabbos. I did some erev-Shabbos shopping for them, but as it was getting quite late I had to head to the checkout line before the entire shopping list was checked off. Since I was pretty sure the supermarket was open 24/7, I planned on returning motzei Shabbos and finishing up.

    You can probably guess what happened next.

    After getting confirmation that yes, the store was open the following night, I apologized again and made my way out.

    Never.

    Ever.

    did you speed away?

    It was Bais Yaakov maydel that left you hanging -that didn’t finish her story-I know it’s confusing there are two members on the YWN coffee room with similar poster names

    I am BasYisroel2 – or BY2,

    Bais Yaakov maydel is someone else-she is BYM-

    Sometimes peole respond to what I post by typing BYM it’s not BYM it’s BY2

    However lately everybody’s been getting the two of us mixed up

    , it’s o.k. that people made that mistake I would just would like to clarify that!

    Thanks for hearing me out!

    going back to being pressured to go out again—i went out w/ a boy that wasn’t emotionally stable-(long story why i went out w/ him) and he was challishing to go out w/ me again and there was no way i was spending any more time w/ him so i said no-the shadchin wouldn’t let me say no-my mother tried for around a 1/2 hour then i got on the phone for an hour and a 1/2 trying to convince this lady that the boy was not for me(he is crazy -a month later he showed up at my door-i am not really sure why, i think he had to ask my father s/t and a couple of times he called my father bec he needed something that someone told him my father might have-he introduced himself as hi i am______ the boy that your daughter went out with and said no!!!!!!!!! just btw that is one of the less crazy stories the crazier ones i cant go into to much detail—once a mother came along….another time the boy forgot about transportation and we spent 1/2 standing at the corner of my block being mortified……another one as we were about to leave told me he had to call his mother to see if the date was long enough…another one took out a paper with a list of questions asked them and then asked if i had anymore questions bec if not he wanted to go(and wanted to go out again) another one was 10 years older then the shadchan told me

    BYM, do you wear a ring at all? Once on the subway, a really creepy older black man asked me out (and the train was stuck so I had nowhere to go!) – keep in mind that I am now 27 but get confused for 16 ALL THE TIME and this was about 8 years ago…so I probably looked like 14 or so. He was 50+. Ick. Anyway, I told him I was married (or engaged, I forgot) and he still didnt let up. But I told him I would never cheat on my fiance/spouse and he got the message. Luckily, the train started moving again pretty quickly and he got off right after.

    You may call me BY I give you the a o.k. so every body I’ve gotten a new identity I am now either BY2, BY,BasYisroel, or BasYisroel2

    My friend told me a very cute story-I have the story fowarded from her:

    There was a girl from Boro Park, and she came to monsey for the day. She was driving around, taking care of whatever she had to take care of in monsey. Then, suddenly-

    CRASH-

    She found the front of her car firmly embedded in the back of the car in front of hers. While her immediate instinct was to panic, she remembered her manners, and like a true bas yisroel who is on the market, she calmly stepped out of her car and blushed at the yeshivah bochur who stepped out of the other car. Spotting a potential problem, the boy, who was from monsey, called his parents down to the scene to mediate.

    While taking care of the various details involved in a car accident, the parents noticed her aidelkeit and fine middos. And so, in addition to getting her name, number, and insurance information, they asked for some references.

    The end of the story is rather obvious….they boy’s parents had a shadchan redt the shidduch. They went out. They got engaged. They got married. Now they are living happily ever after with ten kids. Well, only two, but you get it…

    So here is my new shidduch battle plan. Literally, battle. I’m going to find out which boys I am interested in dating and what kind of cars they drive. I will then follow them around, looking for opportunities to smash into their cars without making it obvious.

    As long as I can keep my cool, maintain my good middos, they will surely ask me for more than just my insurance information.

    Unbelievable? Believe it! _LOL!-That story is hilarious!

    Yes, I do thank the other Dr. Pepper all the time for taking me out of the parsha. She says that Hashem made me go through all this to make me appreciate her more.

    Over Pesach, for the anniversary of our engagement, I wrote her a Da-yainu poem-

    Even if you only went out with me to (temporarily) get the Shadchanim off my back- Da-yainu.

    Even if all you ever did for me was marry me and get me out of the parsha- Da-yainu.

    This just happened to my sister (but not on a date).

    A girl got into an accident with my sister (no injuries B”H, just a couple thousand dollars damage). She had just moved to the city and wasn’t used to “big city” driving. She became good friends with my sister and comes over regularly for Shabbos meals. At one meal she quoted her mother, “Midny*, when I told you to become friends with nice people you run into, I didn’t mean that way!”.

    *Not her real name

    Please don’t deprive the rest of us, just say it happened to a friend (or if you’re embarrassed to make it seem like you have friends like that- just say it happened to someone you know).

    ames and mepal- Tat story I got from my friend she added that part about tracking down boys by causing accidents-I copied and pasted.AS much as I would like to get married I am not that desperate!lol-My mother and I always joke that around bein Hazimanim time I should have a bumper to bumper wiyh some bochur and he will end up being my zivug!

    squeak,

    You still don’t know which sister it was.

    Just kidding, sorry if the wording was confusing. I don’t know who the girl is so I made up the name Mindy. It was her mother that made the comment not my mother. Mindy repeated it at a Shabbos Seudah she was spending with my family.

    Another fun desperate strategy is to take morning flights to Tel Aviv every Rosh Chodesh and tell any bochur you see to remember Yaaleh V’Yovoh in Shacharis.

    I was wondering – did your friend ever find out if the guy was tracking this girl to cause an accident?

    I don’t know which sister, but since you gave away your identity, I can call all your sisters and ask each one if it was her 🙂

    Dr P- you misunderstood squeak… he was referring to YOUR identity

    BY2- this example will be the future reports during bein hazmanim: “Another desperate shidduch attempt has been made on Avenue J and Ocean Parkway. Bystanders witnessed a young woman driving through the red light on the corner of Avenue J & Ocean Pkway causing her to crash into a young man’s vehicle turning onto Avenue J. In light of the unusually high number of recent accidents, our statistics are showing that 85% of all car accidents during the Jewish holiday seasons are deliberate! In addition, 75% out of the 85% involve at least 1 young man & 1 young woman…. “
