Reply To: Musical Chairs and Shidduchim

Lkwdfellow: As i said, this forum is not the place for this discusion, but suffice it to say that i have spoken to tens and tens of shadchanim all across the spectrum. The cruel fact is that there simply aren’t nearly enough chairs around for the participants, and the older participants the more lobsided the game becomes.(yes, a individual girl definately has some options, and she can do herself a lot of good by being open to things she may have not previously considered, however as a whole there’s simply a lack of chairs.)

There isn’t much that can be done for the older participants as a whole other than create a trickle up effect.

The focus of this thread is to prevent the game from continuing (and the solutions suggested will create the desired trickle up effect that will be somewhat of a help to the already older participants).
