The thing is some people want to get married early, that’s what’s frustrating. I’m not even in shidduchim yet but I do want to get married young. I feel it’s what’s best for me and I’m ready for that stage of life. So it would be VERY frustrating and depressing for me to be even 24 and not married yet, chas vishalom.
So tree555, I am a positive person and obviously I would understand it’s what Hashem knows I need, I still would think about it a lot in that situation. It doesn’t sound easy,but of course G-d only gives us what we can handle
Wow lilmod, Hashem must love you a lot!!! I’m so happy for you!!! Such Hashgata Pratis
Person1 sounds like you are having trouble dealing with being an older single. Hatzlacha raba. I know it isn’t easy….
I think it also depends on the person. GoFish doesn’t want to start dating. It is more frustrating to be 27 and in the parsha for 9 years than being 27 and being in the parshah for 2 or 3 years.
It also depends on how badly you want (think you need) to get married now.
I don’t ussually go during toursit season either…I ended up going twice. Plus I was there when this whole thing happened where they found some russian tourist with a pocket knife….
Money is hard these days and it’s hard to find stuff you like. If chol hamoed is when you finally get paid/money/coupons from chesed organazations that you did not have time to use before chag and things are on sale (pre-winter/and want buisness on chol hamoed) there’s no wonder why chareidi people do go shopping on chol hamoed.
You can buy things on sale. Anyway try learning a sefer with friends, or going out to do something with them.
I’m going to the kosel on Wednesday. Look out for the girl with hair that looks like a lion’s main.
It’s great to see you eclipse! I’m so glad I just caught you! Haven’t checked the CR in ages (sems a LOT busier than I thought it would be! Shame there’s no app for the CR)
Pninim is too modern for you? I can’t imagine than what you are because you aren’t MO and you aren’t yeshivish…
Maybe Rinat Tzipporah…
ARWSF: WOW. I’m sure it took a lot of courage to write it down here. How is your family doing now?
Meno: the issue was more about talking to coworkers. My friend trusted her coworker and considered her a friend. She did not think she would repeat word by word exactly everything she said to their boss, including other priavte thoughts and details that were unrelated to her paycheck.
She trusted her coworker, the message is that when it comes to parnassah people can do crazy things, take caution even around those who you consider your friends.
You need to be careful. I had a friend who recently mentioned to her coworker how she felt underpaid, and her coworker managed to extract all the details about her salary than receded to go to her boss demanding that she get paid like my friend….
SiDi I missed your post! Welcome back to you! Its always nice to see your name around.
ARWSF: I haven’t gone anywhere.
Welcome!!! But you never know, a lot of balei tshuva spice things up a bit. I’m sure they know it isn’t like this in every home..
lilmod: maybe the doctors in Israel are better…idk
I know the brother and sister in law of the “bamboo cradle baby”.
Were Jews…it’s not a secret…I think most people know who they are.
Some people just arent human on less than 8 hours (ahem me) it could stem from many reasons…
ADVICE: go see your local doctor!
Sparkly: I was in high school, she wasn’t.
There are many people who go to EY at the ae of 21,22, even 25 and 30. There’s certainly nothing wrong with it unless you ACT like a “kid” (I guess an girl on seminary age…meaning my age)
I understand you want to be treated as an adult and not looked at as a starry eyes kid straight from high school, as long as you act like an adult, dress like one, no one will think you are a kid. There are plently of people your age who live here.
I think the main idea is don’t go to a place full of pritzus if it is totally unessesary. Unless there is a certain store, person, or thing there, or its very close for you, there’s no reason to see extra things we dont need to.
My role model is a special person I met in high school who is a few years older than me. She is amazing ruchniyus wise, and as a person. I look up to her and strive to be like her. She literally made me the person I am today.
Syag isn’t always here. He’s one of those posters that doesn’t post daily. Did he say he was leaving?
Perhaps the frum people in the world want kosher drama. I’m sure instead of seeing which hollywood couples are together, some people come here and see who is arguing with who today.
Don’t many chassidish people have long hair? It’s fine as long as it’s tied back and doesn’t stand out.
Is Do not feed the drama the new do not feed the trolls?
apushua- just because you are sure (or almost sure) one will not be hurt, it’s assur to hurt a fellow Jew. Never does it say in the torah “Don’t say loshon hora about other unless they don’t mind”
Well lilmod, if you start a new thread and not refer the context…most people would be thinking what I was.
lilmod. Kudos on a wonderful post. I hope bezrat hashem I can help klal yisroel be zoche with what I can do. Unfortunately it’s almost impossible for a writer to live without internet. Especially in a foreign country where there is little books to research on topics in your native language.
Besides for that the only other problem I have with your post/opinion is that although this place is the Yeshiva World forum, doesn’t mean that what’s posted on here reflects the views of YWN. It’s a known thing at this point that forums are open places. I agree with your thinking about the fact that even if we don’t live up to the gedolei hador’s expectations that we shouldn’t be against them nor come out against them.
But unfortunately neither you or I can control anyone else, there are people with differing views and rabanim. Let us not attack them but hug them and say “We don’t agree with you, this is not YWN, but we still welcome you, as does Hashem.”
I’m not sure exactly who/what this was a response for but that’s life.
I believe YWN writes somewhere that the opnions and veiws voiced here are not theirs.
@Happygirlgirl: Happy early birthday. I too just turned 18, but I doubt I’m voting. Seems like shlep to vote from overseas. 😛
Well at least confirms that I’m not the youngest of the CR family, I always though I was. I guess that position goes to you. I’ll have to suffice being just the president of SUC.
The comic relief of the CR
Probably a good post for soferet. I bet more people would be into it there.
lilmod, no. I’m going to seminary bezras Hashem. Many posters forget I’m the youngest here because I’ve just been here for so many years…
🙂 It’s a good thing. People take me more seriously than a high schooler (or at least I hope they do)
Teens, female, single, charedi
k9 doesnt really slow things down/
Memo-gals is said in the midwest and south of the USA. I used to live there, so I would know 🙂 We say many interesting things over there.
Bananot is not a typo. I believe there is a term for boys that is based of the work kof. So not demeaning at all 🙂 Not sure where it comes from…
I says guys a lot and also peoples….
Dude is acceptable for friend to friend. That’s about it.
lilmod- bananot is common in Israel. You would say “I saw a bunch of girls I know”
In the midwest we used the term gal. I have found in other places they don’t. So we say “guys” or “bananot”. Another thing I’ve heard a lot is “peoples”, me and my friend use that a lot too. But this is off topic from the OP
You have multiple zivugim at any given time. Based on your actions one of them is more matim than others, but still, don’t worry.
lol. I remember this…
This thread looks like broken telephone.
There is stuff coming out every day. Dovid Lovy, Yehudah, Avraham Freid, and many more people have come out with a new album. Singles and albums really do come out every day. I sugget you check the new arrivals on mostlymusic.
A few places I check for new music is jewishmusicreport, thejewishinsights, and chasidinews (that last one is in hebrew).
Mods, these technically aren’t links…just names of sites so I hope it goes through.
Why wouldyou boy want to give yourvchild a meaningful lovely nam. That helps praise Hashemn and is in his holy languag? Why wouldbt you want to remember hashem every time you call your child’s name? Why wouldn’t you want to have a reminder of your purposr and your child’s purpose in this world?
Yes there are some very pretty non Jewish names,why not put it as a middle name. Or a nickname. why label this neshomma with anything but a Jewish label as the main way it’s known by.
I was referring to the posters in general lol, not you.
Lilmod, when I hear a bochur smokes I don’t think short term. When someone says they smoke in my head that means it’s a longterm thing. I don’t know about other people. I don’t think smoking short term is that bad.
