Reply To: If Nassi is wrong, how do you explain why 1000’s of older girls are stil single?

Ubiquitin the problem starts when a boy lands in Lakewood & immediately (in many cases) has a long list of girls 19-24 to go out with. Of course the youngest, more chashuv, beautiful, wealthy, etc. girls move to the top of the list. The shadchanim focus on these easy shidduchim first because there’s a higher success rate with bigger shadchonus.
Meanwhile, the average excellent girls sit waiting for a date& growing older. Repeat this over & over & you have a crisis.
If the market was even, then boys wouldn’t have long lists of girls to reject & grow older.
I spoke to a successful shadchanim who told me she only deals in fresh crop of boys & girls because they are the easiest to get engaged, the rest aren’t worth her time.
I think this basically explains what’s going on.
