Someone I know had a broken engagement and a certain Dayan told her that she is NOT to tell shadchanim or the family of the boy that she had a broken engagement. This is something that the girl will tell the boy as the relationship progresses. There are many people who break engagements through no fault of their own. Should people be afraid to break an engagement that is not a healthy one because of the stigma, only to get divorced or live with a horrible marriage? There is no reason to tell the other side right away.
The fact that people refer to young men and ladies as “top girl” and “top boy” is sickening. All of Hashem’s children are top girls and top boys.
