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.
January 27, 2017 12:46 am at 12:46 am #1211652☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantA blank comment would be lashon hora…
January 27, 2017 12:50 am at 12:50 am #1211653Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantThere 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.

January 27, 2017 1:12 am at 1:12 am #1211656iacisrmmaParticipantI 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”.

January 27, 2017 6:01 am at 6:01 am #1211660Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantLB – lol.
Where does this whole +1 thing come from? I never heard of it before the CR. What does it mean exactly?
January 27, 2017 1:42 pm at 1:42 pm #1211661FuturePOTUSParticipantI 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.
January 27, 2017 3:18 pm at 3:18 pm #1211662blubluhParticipantLU: 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.
January 27, 2017 6:27 pm at 6:27 pm #1211663mw13ParticipantDoes anybody know if YU guys will generally go out with the daughter of a troll?
January 28, 2017 7:39 pm at 7:39 pm #1211664Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantblubluh: “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.
January 28, 2017 7:41 pm at 7:41 pm #1211665Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantmw13 – 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.
January 28, 2017 7:42 pm at 7:42 pm #1211666Lilmod UlelamaidParticipantFuturepotus – +1!
January 29, 2017 1:01 am at 1:01 am #1211667LightbriteParticipantTruth is that any girl that a YU guy dates is someone’s daughter!
