ron, In Europe the barriers were steeper and meeting and matching even more regulated. Unfortunately in this American golus many gedarim have broken down.

Huh? I’ve already posted that my grandfather was already engaged to someone when he went to meet my grandmother, simlpy to help a poor shadchan make some money. How strict could things have been? The Kleinvardeiner Rav, and Kisvarda was a MAJOR kehilla in Hungary was m’shadeich his daughter to a regular ba’al habos; and not even a wealthy one. Show me a “choshuve rov” these days who would do likewise. The chareidi shochet in Salgotajrian married his daughter to a Neologue Hebrew tutor. That wouldn’t happen these days. so MM what are you talking about?
