    I think that as long as you marry the right person, the person you really want to spend the rest of your life with and marry him/her because you really care about him/her and WANT to spend the rest of your life with him/her, not because you were told you should get married, then married life is something you’ll love, not dread.

    I agree with aries. I also think another reason some girls go off is because they feel like second class citizens. Women are not seen that way in Judaism, but (especially with what’s been going on lately) there are many men who, through behavior and manner of speech, give the wrong message.

    I’m not an expert here, so I’m not sure if giving presents comes from Xmas, but I heard that parents give their kids presents to get them excited for Chanukah. True giving gelt can get them excited, too, but I know that when I was a kid, all I wanted was toys toys toys, and I couldn’t care less about money.

    Lol popa…let’s just drop this. Truce? We should all be more respectful in the future. Sorry again….

    Popa, I take back my apology. Whether or not I am your wife, is beside the point. Do you think the only person you have to respect is your wife? So you can be rude to everyone else? You think your post was more offensive than mine? Think again. I’ve ignored you in the past. I’m going to continue doing that. Be rude and offensive and however you want to be, but we all know who is a mench here and who is not.

    Some male posters here need a slap in the face. Popa, even though you don’t see it or agree with MP, he pointed out that you may have said something hurtful to postsemgirl. I don’t get it, doesn’t it bother you that you hurt someone’s feelings? You want to be a real male? Then act like one and apologize. Only cowardly males continue with their bashing instead of stepping back and realizing they did something wrong, and apologizing. Maybe you were bothered by what postsemgirl said, but there is a way to speak to someone.

    Great idea, MP!

    Poppa, it helps because if a male mod lets a certain thread or post through, and the female mod finds it offensive, she can delete it or lock it.

    I nominate aries2756, if she has time of course.

    There have been female mods, I don’t know if there are currently any. In any event, we usually don’t look at deleted posts at all.

    I agree that most girls don’t need to learn all the meforshim, but now that I’m no longer in school and would like to learn some navi on my own, I’m grateful I’m able to open a navi to whatever perek I want and learn it as in depth as I choose to. Chumash and navi were my favorite subjects in school, so it wasn’t hard for me, but what works for one girl doesn’t work for the next one. Schools need to recognize that.

    Hi, Ice-cream uscream we all…

    If your family (and community) makes you feel really bad about yourself, maybe it’s time to leave them. It’s really important to stay away from all the negative people in your life and surround yourself with positive people. That’s hard when you don’t have a job, so take a few steps at a time. Forget about all your other obstacles and focus on getting a job for now. Apply everywhere and anywhere. Look online, in newspapers, wherever you can. Even to places you don’t want to work in. Then when you have enough, move away and build a better life for yourself. I know, it’s not easy, but if you’re determined to fix your life, you need to do it.

    And this goes for your other thread: I’m a nerd, too. I’m a dork. I’m not one to conform. But there are people who like that about me. And you know? A lot of people don’t. So what do I do? Nothing. If they don’t like me, they don’t like me and that’s okay, because I probably wouldn’t want them as my friend anyway. They are not my peeps. You have to embrace your nerdyness! Don’t be an embarrassed because you’re a little different.

    Oh and it’s okay to make friends here. Of course it doesn’t substitute for real friends, but maybe you won’t feel so alone.

    I posted my list a few days ago, but the mods didn’t let it through. I’ll try again:

    1) Roller Coaster Tycoon, Zoo Tycoon, any tycoon is fun.

    2) Nancy Drew if you want mysteries.

    3) Sim City.

    4) I love the Caesar series. You’re a governor and your job is to manage a city. It’s fun for kids. There is a bit of Roman Mythology, so if you’re not okay with that, then maybe it’s not good for your kids.

    5) Chicken Invaders

    6) Age of Empires. But be careful because Age of Empires 3 has a multiplayer (online) feature.

    7) Mystery Case Files–hidden object game

    It’s the Distributive Property.

    Example: 1/2(5) + 1/2(2) = (5+2)/2. Doing that math, both sides should equal 3.5.

    Okay, I’ll try to translate:

    Veedivilst: Wherever you want

    fohng uhn fin uhnfong: Start from the beginning

    Fargin: Don’t know how to explain this one. Let’s say your neighbor gets a new car and you mutter something like, “Oh look, so and so got a new car” and then another car crashes into it. So your neighbor would say, “Someone didn’t fargin me.” I think that’s right. Someone correct me if I’m wrong. Another example. “My father’s eating a delicious piece of chocolate cake. It splats down on his shirt. He’d say “someone didn’t fargin me” Or something like that. Not fargin means you’re not happy for the person, so fargin means you are I guess.

    Yiddish phrase I like: It’s not really Yiddish, but when my grandmother says, “Choochum” (Chacham in Hebrew),I always crack up.

    soliek, I haven’t had a chance to read your excerpt yet, but I will soon when I have time. I just want to say that you should be careful with what you post. First of all, anyone could read this and steal it. Second of all, some publishers don’t like to publish work that has already been “out there.” Since it’s up here, it might be considered “published” and publishers might not want to use it. So while it’s okay to put up some pieces, I think the mods should take it down after a while.

    In MP’s defense (not that anyone is attacking him) he did give a warning that his post was long. I think in general, it’s okay for a post to be long, but as long as it’s interesting and engaging, it won’t feel like it’s really long.

    adorable, I disagree. Three of my friends married Chassidish guys and I was really shocked. One of them was Litvish, but she was pretty open to anyone, so it wasn’t such a shock, but for the others??? Wow. One was really modern, and the other one was really really modern. But that’s okay, whatever makes people happy. And there are many sefardim who marry ashkanazim.

    When I said an older girl, I meant 2-3 years his senior. I didn’t mean a 30 year old guy marrying a 40 year old girl. But that’s okay too if that’s what they want. There shouldn’t be set rules in this.
