“When I think of an idea for a possible shidduch, I’m always torn between making the call, or being smart and banishing the thought before I go near the phone. It’s no use wishing singles (and their parents) were less sensitive; I can’t think of a more sensitive issue! Even with the best of intentions the possibility of bruising feelings is exponentially greater than the possibility of bringing two people together.”
So true! there is a shidduch that was thought of over a year ago for 2 older singles, but no one has the courage to redt it, for fear of insulting somebody.
