aseh me at – i finally got to read your reply to my suggestion of having hotels with boys and girls at tables. you wrote:
” Nobody is concerned that singles events with ehrliche men and women is going to suddenly degenerate into debauchery, the concern is about singles wasting their time flirting with people they have no intention of marrying, which contrary to the beliefs of some, is not condoned by the Torah.”
your words sound hollow, considering that a shidduch date is essentially just what you described.
p.s. i know plenty of people who met in hotels and subsequently married, me included.
i guess that’s why we’re called ‘modern orthodox’.
it would be interesting to know how many girls stayed single – using these two approaches to meeting people
