    Yes I firmly believe that if we cure the sweatshirt problem then we will have cured the “shidduch crisis”

    If you have more than one sibling… make sure they all find out on the same day.

    Between Monsey and Lakewood twice a day there is the Rockshire for $20. I don’t know if the CR will let me post the number. When you call the number it gives you the times for the day. In Lakewood it stops at the Capital Hotel. If the CR lets I will post the number for you.

    Thank you thank you. Those songs are seared into my brain. no way to get them out. lol.

    yes44 – I don’t remember any of those years that you mentioned…sorry

    Baal – I don’t have kids yet but I have told those stories over to nieces and nephews. The story about the girl who fed her food to the garbage can and she got all skinny and ugly while the garbage can got pretty and big. That’s one of my favorites.

    Yeah it was the Mitzvah Tree. I remember watching the record spin around as it played. I used to jump up and down next to the player to make the needle jump. My mother didn’t like that too much.

    I wasn’t trying to be condescending. I am not talking about THOSE girls who can’t get dates. Personally I have been in shidduchim for 5 years and only dated 2 guys. I wasn’t going to talk about myself but I want you to see that I am not taking these girl’s nisyonos lightly because I am one of them.

    Elmos world – I read your post 4 times and I am still saying WHAT?!?

    Girls who have many dates and girls who don’t have many dates. That doesn’t seem to say much about a girl. (unless you call being rich something) It simply says they have different nisyonos. One has the nisayon of emunah to know that even though she isn’t going out often, her bashert is waiting for her. The other girl has the nisayon of being disappointed every times she goes out.

    Personally I would rather have the nisayon of emunah over the nisayon of being disappointed. We dont, however, get to chose.

    What does that mean that you had enough of going out with girls who can’t seem to get dates. Every girl is an individual. Each with her own set of middos, talents, and difficulties. Who cares how many times she has gone out.

    If you can explain this to me, I would appreciate it.

    Thanks

    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.

    I was in 7th grade and our teachers were all crying. It was scary. We had a big assembly in one of the classrooms and our teachers told us. Most of us didn’t even know what the World Trade Centers were.

    Sorry if you felt attacked dora. I don’t appreciate generalizations. There are too many people who say the shidduch crisis is because of this or the shidduch crisis is because of that. Every single person who is in this “crisis” is an individual and there is no one way to fix it.

    And Gefen I wasn’t insulted. Don’t you worry

    I Wasn’t trying to be cute. I am seriously confused. I am not one of those girls who just got back from seminary and is high in the clouds. I’ve been through a lot. Anyone who knows me can back me up on that. I am not one of those people who has a checklist of what the boy needs to be. I’ve been hurt by the system and right now I am very open minded. I still don’t think it is fair to say that if I am not married it means I don’t want to be.

    I am not married because:

    A: I don’t really want to be married

    B: I really want to marry my father and I can’t find anyone like him so I chose to be alone.

    Got it thanks dorafelder

    dorafelder – What is that supposed to mean “The ones who get married are the ones who REALLY want to be married.” You’re telling me that your daughter who got married at 27 didn’t want to get married before that? I know plenty of people who “REALLY want to be married” who are not. Can you please explain that?

    Call up your wife and tell her that you realize how much she actually does for you.

    As they say…. you don’t realize what you have until you don’t have it anymore.

    Wow a thread just for me! I’m truly honored! I don’t lurk around this room all day. I just check it out every so often.

    I couldn’t really respond to the cholov yisroel question cuz I don’t drink milk so I wouldn’t know.

    You think you know who I am? That’s nice cuz I don’t really know who I am. So if you figure it out and let me know, that would be nice. lol.

    So Gefen…… who are you? Was that you in Kol Tuv this morning?

    wow don’t even get me started on this….. Someone told me that his son has a right to see a picture before the date so he should know if he is wasting his time or not because he wants a good looking wife so that his children will be good looking.

    I said what about the chinuch of the kids. good looking or not, it’s the mother who is the kids first teacher. Shouldnt hashkafos and middos be more important?

    He didn’t have an answer.

    syag – I was on a date and the guy asked me if I know what yoshon and cholov yisroel are since we probably don’t get it in Chicago. I said yeah and guess what we keep Shabbos as well. Srsly why did he agree to go out with me?

    gefen – I was thinking of bringing Mrs. O’Leary’s cow but it was a big mess last time….
