SParkly:- my issue is that the guys i want are in their young 20, in college, enjoying life, and want to wait like at least 1 more year to get married and then you have me waiting for them. and i think thats where the whole shidduch crisis thing sets in because guys making the girls wait.
Health:They don’t make them wait. They are just being choosey! If they want something, they go for it!
Sparkly:Health – so your saying the guys are being choosey since they dont want to start dating until their like 22,23,24,25, etc….?
HealtH: Yes! But why are you saying 22,23, etc.? Some Frum men date & get married at 18yo?!?
You see, Sparkly was talking about specific guys she knows who are not dating yet and are waiting until 22, etc, so she has to wait for them. Health said THEY are not making her wait; THEY are just being choosy. so his comment should be referring to the guys in Sparkly’s post, not to other guys.
As Comlink-x wrote, Health’s pronouns were obviously going on the “them” in the post he was commenting on. Health agreed and even got upset with Meno for writing that his pronouns were unclear.
If Health wants to write that there are other boys who do date younger and Sparkly should go out with them, then he would have to specify that in his original post instead of writing “them”.
