Whether or not the content is torah-dik or not, I have one pet peeve that I need to share.
Can someone please educate the bochurim who hand them out in restaurants, that it is really not nice to put dates on the spot for Tseddaka. The breslave bochurim often come over when I’m out on a date, and we are interrupted by a bochur, pushing us for tseddakka and wanting to give us a booklet. It is really unfair to put the guy on the spot like that, and it is VERY awkward for both the guy and girl… especially when the bochur, then wishes us Mazel tov, or ‘hatslacha’ (wink wink).
Just thinking about it makes me cringe.
Yes, I know some of you will comment that I get to see how the guy reacts yada yada, but there are plenty of other opportunities to see what the guy is made of, and this is just completely cringable… aside from the interruption which is just annoying.
Please don’t get me wrong, when I’m out with my friends, I don’t mind it half as much and sometimes even give them some $$, but on a date, it adds unnecessary awkwardness to an already awkward situation.
If anyone has any connection to any breslavers that are involved with this- it would be a mitsva to pass this on to them- I’m sure they are just not aware…
Thanks!
