They never did meet each other, and I make no apologies for feeling that this is a real shame.
What happened, did that girl end up in an unhappy marriage?
whatever it takes to get our single people married, should be considered, even if it means “double dipping”
Do you mean agreeing to two shidduchim at the same time, or seeing two people at the same time?
I think the rules seem to apply less as singles get older.
I am not taking a strong stance on this issue at all, I merely stated that I’m “uncomfortable” because of Sacrilige’s reason, which, as I understood it, is that it’s hurtful to hear that a boy agreed to go out, and then less than a week later if she also agrees, he’s suddenly busy. On the other hand, as popa said, and you, I think, agree, why should he have to put his efforts to get married on hold for a week.
I’m somewhere in the middle here; I think you and Sacrilege are on opposite sides.
