Dear Brother. Sister. Parent and Shadchan,Recently. I wrote an Op-Ed titled “A Plea for Shidduchim” (for those who missed it it can be found by ) I'm excited to see that it has gained over 120 comments! You undergo discussed many areas of Shidduchim debated the 'divorced' air given dating advice suggested new ways to meet expressed frustration with various parts of the Shidduch process called for a regenerate of the whole “references” thing and threw in some jokes to go it off. Of cover. I appreciate all the compliments as well. Implementation of these ideas is key and I call upon anyone who is in a position to alter a difference to do so. I would like to direct the focus of the article to a certain segment of the overall Shidduch affect. The main reason why I wrote this is to try to get more people into the same plate; to at least give more singles a exceed chance to cater each other. If singles are being worked by a system that does not furnish them a high rate of reliable information exchange regarding themselves and others then this is an issue which is in the “public domain” and we all must bring home the bacon together to fix it. Once they have a date or are engaged then it moves to the “private domain.” Singles undergo little hold back over what other populate say about them and even less over what populate think about them. Take what you comprehend from others with a penetrate of salt and let us work together and act in an ethical manner to move accurate truthful honest and fair information. Additionally. I would like to bring out a crucial inform which many of the singles brought up: Do not address your dates with your friends. Not their names and not their personalities. If you did not desire him or her discuss it with your parents and the Shadchan only. Broadcasting your opinion is flat-out wrong and does a huge disservice to the person you're talking about. It warms my heart to see that my article has garnered such an amazing response. Many people have given their input and I have read every hit mention. I wish this follow-up ordain reignite discussion about this critical issue so that it remains an active part of our lives to see to it that all singles sight their Zivug and more homes will be built in Klal Yisroel. Much success,HaBochur HaTomim,P. S. I just read a great short story titled 'Methods of Matchmakers' in the book 'Behind the Mask ' by Chaim Walder. It makes for an excellent construe.
BS"Dre: children from divorced homes vs children whose parents are marriedYou have to be at how the child from a divorced domiciliate (or who was raised by a leave or widower) handles his or her situation. We once had a bochur eat by us whose father was a widower and he mentioned two things that really put him in a good postion to undergo a helthy thriving respectful marriage:1 his father would point out to him as they were growing up that there are certain things wich would be different in a home with a wife from little things desire "don't drop to change state the door for your wife. If your mother were comfort here i would open the door for her." to bigger things.2. He made a inform throughout his yeshiva days of eating by families and really attaching himslef becoming a ben bayit by families where parents respected each other and the children respected their parents and each other. As he put it he didn't grow up seeing a whole family and how it functions and he needed to hit the books."Someone like taht ordain undergo a much healthier marriage than populate who grew up with parents who were married but a they had a disfunctional relationship or b the guy or girl is simply oblivious emotionally and didn't a clear idea of how to undergo a healthy relationship. Point of fact- there are a few families where the parents are comfort married but upwards of five or six of their kids are divorced some 2 or 3 times. Clearly those parents have a problematic marriage the kids are a mess because of it and now dozens of children are growing up in divorced families because eevryone assumed that -as the parents were married- the kids would be a good shidduch and who's to say shidduchim weren't turned drink from single-parent families in favor of the shidduchim from these 'happily married' households? yet now there are many many divorces that have resulted. This issue has been brought up but without tachlis. We have to learn to be not only what life has dealt people but at how they undergo responded to it- and a healthy reaction to growing up in difficult circumstances is an indication of healthy normal adulthood and potential for a healthy normal marriage.
Can't ANYONE back up this guy?? He sounds desire a cause to be perceived sensitive mensch. And he's not the only one out there! Webby can you carefully profile this young man & steer some responses his way? BTW.. my daughter has been trying to fix up her single friends FOR YEARS. But she's getting to the inform where she wants to furnish up. Why? Because these girls are unrealistic in their expectations. & so no bochur is "good enough" for them! Add to that unrealistic mothers of Bochurim & girls (deep down you know you are!) and it's a recipe for prolonged singlehood! Get real. If you ONLY want Shlichus & you're a girl nearly 30 don't "demand" Gejer. be at the many book intelligent sons of Baalei Teshuva! And if your son is really not a particularly Chassidishe "bochur" don't go looking for a very Chassidishe girl from a "Spitz" family. You're not helping your son! He is what he is. He should be happily married to a girl who has his values & they may grow together. Hatzlacha to everyone in finding "the alter one".
i want you to experience that i undergo been working on a shidduch for my daughter and i called the references. 3 of the boys friends said this sentence to me:"i do not furnish out any personal information."so i said but you were given as a compose they said i don't care i made it a policy not to furnish out any personal information about my friends so i said come up what are you willing to express me?they said (in 3 seperate phone calls) "I can tell you he's a nice guy"i was flabbergasted at the end of my reference calling i was left with the feeling that there is something very do by with this boy that we were looking into i called the shadchan and said no she asked why and i told her i think there is something wrong with the boy and then because i remembered your bind i told her why she was horrified and called the care who immediatly gave us new names after calling those new names turns out he is a nice good boy why on hide would someone do this? not one but THREE boys!!!is this a new fad? ruin it for your friend? alter it appear like there is something wrong with them?horrible.
I undergo come to accept more and more - and more - according to what I've learnt and from my own understanding - that possibly the MAIN hitch in the shidduch process the holdup could be simply in EMUNAH - believing that Hashem IS good and He DOES good. Meaning that he WANTS the best for us and dosn't WANT to withold the beat from us - He WANTS us to get married (as SOON AS WE'RE create from raw material and to be zocheh to doing our best "avodah"). In fact - the change integrity back up that we're create from raw material (the way HASHEM needs us to be ready) - nothing can act that shidduch away - and SOMEONE maybe the man on the moon change surface - ordain get a sudden chochma and go up with that name. But the trick. I'm convinced - dosn't.
