    Assuming that you at least saw a pic and you were UNattracted to her, I’d say “I’m attracted to her”. If somebody thinks that attraction is not important in marriage, perhaps, they should rethink being a shadchan.

    Yo mama’s so ugly, the last time she heard a whistle was when she got hit by a train.

    When your mama was born, the doctors slapped her parents.

    Yo mama’s so short, you can see her feet on her driver’s license.

    Yo mama’s so dumb, she failed a survey.

    She’s so dumb, she failed a blood test.

    Yo mama’s so old, her birth certificate says expired.

    Yo mama’s glasses are so thick, when she looks at a map she can see people waving.

    Gilgul,

    I wouldn’t be offended. A big gadol that I know uses Artscroll to prepare his gemara shiur. The reason why people are against it is that sometimes, people use it as a crutch. People who have the time to learn up a gemara by themselves and instead use an Artscroll are ripping themselves off. Some people will bash it without knowing why. But a yeshiva bochur building his gemara skills should not be spending too much time learning out of an Artscroll. The gemara is written in a very specific way, and if somebody uses an Artscroll before he knows how the gemara is written, it will be much harder for him to pick it up than if he spent the same amount of time (and covered less ground) learning out of a regular gemara.

    Hey I just realized, we might be the same person. You might really be Joseph!

    There’s Rabbi Brazil’s yeshiva (16 Ramat Hagolan). They daven shacharis 7:30 every day. Next door (#18) they have a 7:15 sacharis

    Apparently I said something funny, but I don’t remember what I wrote. So can the mod who deleted my post dig it up and let me know what it is, or will I forever remain clueless?

    optimusprime: welcome back Joseph to you as well. It actually hasn’t been that long. I went by a different name – a bit more stomach churning…

    As yungerman1 wrote, there are different type of therapy. I personally suggest “Systems Therapy”. This type of therapy is more straight to the point, and (from my experience at least), has a goal of how many sessions you will go for. Therapists with other approaches may just say to continue going until you’re ‘all better’, whenever that may be. A Systems Therapist should be able to tell you after the first or second session how many sessions it should last. Also, try to find out which approaches didn’t work for you in the past; many times it’s not necessarily the therapist who’s bad for you, rather it’s the type of therapy. So if one approach didn’t work for you, don’t go to another therapist with the same approach. One more thing, if money is the main issue, divorce may make it even more challenging. It may be obvious to some, but I would say that you should always speak to your rav before making such an important decision. If you don’t have a rav, perhaps you know a rabbi that knows you personally. The reason for speaking with a rav is that they can advise you based on the torah they have learned.

    Hatzlacha!
