    I have a daughter in Shidduchim, and someone read a Shidduch for a YU guy. Does anyone know if they are generally frum/good guys?

    If comments aren’t nice, instead of saying lashon hara, just post a blank comment.

    A blank comment would be lashon hora…

    There are all types. The ones I went out with and the ones my friends married are exceedingly Frum, sincere, Yarei Shamayim B’nei Torah and b’nei aliyah. But there is a very wide range. Asking if YU guys are Frum/good guys is probably similar to asking if guys in general are Frum/good guys.

    Not sure how to generalize 6,000+ Jews in one post.

    It only matters if he is a good+frum guy.

    I personally would allow my daughter to be “read” to a talmid or alumnus of YU.

    Does anyone know if they are generally frum/good guys? As with any other yeshiva bachur you have to do your “due diligence”.

    LB – lol.

    Where does this whole +1 thing come from? I never heard of it before the CR. What does it mean exactly?

    I think it would be better to weigh the potential shidduch on his own merit, and as his own person, than by applying generalizations from a group of thousands.

    LU: I think the +1 shows agreement or appreciation. There’s a similar feature in Facebook, though that implementation displays the tally of pro/con votes rather than adding posts to the thread.

    Does anybody know if YU guys will generally go out with the daughter of a troll?

    blubluh: “LU: I think the +1 shows agreement or appreciation.”

    I know that; I just wasn’t sure why.

    Maybe the 1 is referring to the person who is writing +1 and he is saying that there is an additional person who agrees with whatever the original person wrote? According to what you wrote about FB that would make sense.

    If that is the case, I guess it doesn’t make too much sense when I write + 1,000! oh, well.

    mw13 – while that was a funny line, I am concerned that the OP could possibly take offense, so you might want to check that they weren’t offended. I think they meant the question seriously and they were trying to avoid LH.

    Truth is that any girl that a YU guy dates is someone’s daughter!
