AZ:

1. You are right. It isn’t so common to go past 3/4 dates. However, one should be given the option without feeling any pressure of paying a shadchan. Contrary to what you say, I think for some families it’s an additional expense and worry that isn’t necessary.

2. I don’t think it’s a good thing for girls to be slowed down. If they are ready to get married, who are you to stop them?

3. Same argument as #2.

“Glad to see some discussion on the real issues.” – Same here although I hope we actually come up with solutions and not go in circles.
