Does anyone know what type of community is there?
Dyslexic chassidic.
I dont think you can live there unless you are part of the Skvar community
You mean New Square, otherwise known to chasidim as Skver. It’s a town near Monsey founded and built by Skvere Chasidim, headed by the previous Skevere Rebbe o’bm.
Its like a shtetl in America, and I heard their hachnosas orchim is something special.
Its obviously a very sheltered environment, that being the point of the whole thing.Out of the box
If you live up to their demands you’ll have a GAN EDEN on this world,
Rebshidduch,
To answer your questions: no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Did I get all of them?
Meno, you answered no to all the questions. That applies to most people in N. S. If someone is considering a shidduch from here it’s possible that thier son/daughter is not typical Skver.
Is this the guy with the tattoo?
So whats the problem?
You said he is very religious, who cares if he is Litvish or Chassidish.
If he’s a good boy, with good middos and yiras shomayim, and he wants a similar life to the one you want, go for it. He isn’t New Square type anymore, so why is it relevant what they are like?
It would make sense to find out why and how he left, just to make sure it isn’t something that would have a negative effect on your life. In other words make sure he isn’t a anti-establishment, bitter angry guy.
Probably he’s not.Very important question to ask is why he did drop out from being a Skverer chassid.
Wanting a wife who will cover her hair and wear only skirts makes it sound like he’s a baal teshuva. This is not usually even discussed amongst frum people as it is a given.
He became Litvish, but very religious, & a very good boy overall,,,,,
So what’s the difference as to whether he’s from Skver or not? he’s a good boy? serious? all info. provided positive? go for it, coming from skver is only a bonus, he just couldn’t keep up to their demands, as long as he’s not rebellious shows that he’s a serious boy,,,,They used to commercially package and distribute orange juice, but I do not see it in the supermarkets any more. The juice was good.
huju: it still exists under a new name, Fresh and Tasty
But the New Square milk brand was a much better and well known brand. It made no sense to have retired that brand.
Yep, orange juice is a reason to marry the guy! 😉
Why do I feel Purimdik?
You must do what your husband tells you to.
Rebshidduch: Skver is a very closed town and chassidus. They jave vaadim for all sorts of things. They have a vaad for tznius, they have avaad that looks for anyone deviating even slightly from their way of life. Some people flourish in that sort of environmemt, and some people find it oppressive.
So it is perfectly understandable why someone would opt to leave that society. I don’t think it should be held against him.It’s the type of community where, if you commit the grave sin of davening in a nearby nursing home so that elderly Jews can have a minyan, you will be subjected to intense harassment until they get rid of you, but if you attempt to burn down a home with a family sleeping in it, you will be welcomed back with open arms and celebrated when you are released from prison.
